Q: Does this clock radio have a battery backup?

A: Yes, this clock radio has a battery backup feature that keeps the time accurate even during power outages.

Q: How is this clock radio powered?

A: This clock radio can be powered by either batteries or by plugging it into an outlet.

Q: What is the speaker output power of this Sony clock radio?

A: The speaker output is 100mW at 10% harmonic distortion.

Q: What type of sound does the alarm make?

A: The alarm can be set to either a buzzer or radio sound.

Q: Can I adjust the volume of the alarm?

A: The Sony clock radio features a gradual-wake alarm that starts at a low volume and gradually increases, but it does not have an adjustable alarm volume.

Q: How loud is it? Can you compare it to an actual noise that it sounds like... TY!!!

A: If you are talking about the ever-present electrical hum — it’s low but constantly there and annoying. I could hear it from anywhere in the bedroom. Otherwise I liked everything about the clock—it simplicity, small size, decent reception, mellow orange color time display (with 2 brightness levels) that on low didn’t light up the bedroom at night. But sadly, because of the constant hum, I returned it. Tried 2 different clocks in case it was a fluke. But it happened with both.

Q: Where is on/off button?

A: To listen to the radio, press "radio." "Alarm reset" turns it off. I have not used the alarm feature. I can't help but wonder what "genius" thought it was a good idea not to have a simple on/off button.
