Excellent Display
This alarm clock is almost the perfect alarm clock. I moved from projection clock.I ordered another similar style clock that did have time and temperature display which did not make the cut. I had to send that back due to I think it was defective (power adapter) short causing the display to run off back up battery, which made it lose power. The display of the clock was very poor, although I love the outdoor weather temperature display with time. I had to send it back. Not paying $40 for a clock that had that poor of craftmanship.That failed purchase lead me down a rabbit hole, which led me to this clock. The reviews for this company product was more great than not so great. They did offer projection clocks, but not like this one. I really liked the display on this one, but the biggest selling point was the atomic clock. It keeps the settings, when the power flickers. Not having to reset time and alarms was worth the trade off. I just wished this style also offered projection. If it had a weather station for outside temperature to also be displayed with time would have made it the perfect clock for me.My personal preferences aside. This is a good QUALITY alarm clock with perks (moon phase, dst and atomic setting) for a VERY FAIR price. The display is clear and very legible from across the room. The automatic dim setting is a added bonus. The alarm sound is effective. Annoying enough to wake you, but not so annoying that you want to smash it with your fist (lol). The temperature is accurate within a degree or so.

Perfect for bedroom and family room needs of elderly and power outages
I spent hours over many days during 6 week sorting through available clocks on Amazon and other sites. Initially I passed this up due to a lower than average review rating. However decided to give it a try and ended up ordering 3 more. Now have a total of five. Will update review if they fail.Have had thee clocks now for 2-3 weeks. Set up was impressive! After the first two arrived, I was so blown away, that I ordered 3 more.After unpacking, I inserted 3 AAA batteries in a couple (and not in others) and plugged in. I did not have to set any time! It set itself automatically on my time zone. That met my most important need. We live where thunderstorms take down our power for a few minutes to a few hours a few times every month, sometimes weekly. Occasionally lose power for a day or more. It drives my husband and I crazy having to reset clocks so frequently.We have a few critical clock needs- large font, ability to dim at night, able to display time during power outages and ability to have the clocks display the correct time automatically when power comes back online.Unbelievable that no one makes such a product! Unless it's battery powered only. So when I finally gave in and looked at "battery" clocks, this one popped up. "Battery only" clocks are too small for our needs as they are mostly designed for travel and when not backlit, are hard to read. Battery clocks just can't put out the wattage needed for a bright, year round display. So I kept searching for a clock that plugs into the wall and had an option for batteries to keep time during power losses.This clock plugs into the wall and works both with and without batteries. When power goes out, if batteries are inserted then the clock face is able to display all readings when the Light/Snooze button is tapped. It displays for about 30 seconds. Very helpful if power goes out in the middle of the night and you are wondering what time it is. It also displays a "low battery" icon when they need to be replaced. We put one in the garage with batteries and another in the guest bedroom. The other 2 are in a family room and game room and they didn't need batteries as we don't use those rooms when we lose power.When power is resumed the clocks all display correct time, no need to reset. Of note, the clocks may have a 1-2 minute variance of displayed time but for us, that isn't an issue. Any clock we manually set, also has that same varience. Should an exact time be needed, we have mobile phones and tablets. The six inch high display, is absolutely perfect! Aging eyes need more space between characters. This clock has a good 1/4" space from all the edges and 1/2" between hours and minutes. The time is displayed 2 inches high on the upper two-thirds of the screen. This thoughtful elevation makes it easier to view than a smaller 2-3" clock when propped up in bed reading or laying down because it's at eye level.The 2" white font is easier on our eyes than our previous 2" red LED clock displays.We keep the Bright setting (5 levels) on high for the all the clocks except for the ones in our bedroom and guest room. Those are kept on Auto Bright which means it self dims to the lowest setting between the hours of 9pm to 7am and then retuns to the high setting. The minor drawback is that when the power goes out (even with batteries inserted) the clocks will default to the highest Bright setting, so the Auto setting needs to reset. The purpose of the batteries seem to be soley the ability to see all the displays (time, temp, humidity, battery level, time zone, day, date, am/pm, moon phase) when the Light/Snooze button is pressed.A huge unexpected plus for us with this clock is the built in Day, Date, Temperature and Humidity displays. Being retired, we are used to minor confusion of the days which are tracked mostly because of medical apts. Seeing the day and date helps us become centered when awakening. Living in FL the temp and humidity are quite useful as well.The clock size is perfect. Not too small to be easily knocked over accidentally or knocked off when cleaning the table top. It's lightweight to pick up when dusting and easy to grasp. The base is firm and keeps the clock on its placed location. The body design doesn't accumulate dust on the back. The power cord is long enough to reach nearby outlets from a table top.While not designed as a "travel clock"' should we have to travel, I would definitely pack one of these in our suitcase! So often we have to unplug hotel clocks due to too much night time brightness, alarms going off in wee morning hours and not displaying the correct time. This clock displays the Time Zone (EST, CST, est.) which is so needed when traveling! Not to mention the temp display which helps with decisions over hotel thermostat adjustments. It's so very difficult to locate and read those wall thermostats without a flashlight and glasses. Another travel plus is having the extra USB at our bedside.Our order for a generator install at this new home has been held up for 5 months due to shortages of propane tanks. However, these clocks will still be very much needed as the generator doesn't kick in until we have a 2-3 min loss of power. (A safety/compatibility issue with the tie in to our electricity provider to ensure its a true power loss and not a flicker situation.) Very pleased to have the correct time displayed regardless of power loss or flicker.My one reservation is if they will hold up over time. A handful of older reviews said they gave out after a few months. If that happens I will update this review.

A lot of very bright information
The features of this clock work as advertised. The two most important features: battery backup and auto DST are why I purchased it. The rest of the info is fun but rarely look at the additional display.The time display is large and easy to read. I only knocked off one star because even on the dimmest setting it is still too bright. It doesn't keep me awake but I would like it to be just a bit dimmer.

Slick
Nice clock, the lowest light output is low enough that it doesn't mess with my sleep. When it goes off it's not that annoying screech of a beep like some have. Display is large enough that even without my spectacles I can see it enough to make out the time. So far haven't seen the screen go dark like my last one, when it's syncing with the atomic clock. Easy set up. Having dedicated buttons for certain things is way better. So far recommend.
