Travel Alarm Clocks - Your Traveling Buddy

By Kim Selorio

One of the experiences of a person on vacation or on a business trip is having really hard times sleeping at night and waking up in the morning. Presuming you travelled across America, you would surely feel jet lagged due to travelling in a place with a different time zone. This is where alarm clocks come in. There are certain alarm clocks that you be handy when you travel around the globe whether it's a vacation trip or a business trip.


The clock that you are bringing should be portable. This device must fit your luggage or travel bag without it being squished or smashed into pieces. This handy clock's number should also be easy to read and also easy to set especially with the alarms. This will surely save you much more time than having to regularly set the alarm on. This clock also has several tones in which you can choose from, from beeps to rings to loud alarms just choose the one you prefer and the one that will wake you up in the morning. The main purpose this device is to wake you up during the times you need to.

There are new alarm clocks just manufactured in the first quarter of this year in America and they differ in style, color, design and even features. Most of these products are handy and portable. There is a certain production line of these kinds of alarm clocks that even look like pocket watches, which is indeed good since they have their own protection from the damage they may get when place inside a suitcase filled with stuff.

The price of these new travel alarm clocks usually range from being cheap to expensive. The factors that may affect the price are the design, functions, colors and features. These clocks can usually be bought over at famous department stores or at luggage stores. But always put in your mind that whether you buy something cheap or expensive it must do its task in waking you up.

Another thing these new line of alarm clocks can offer is the customizable alarm tone. You can record your favourite song so that it would play on the time you set it up. But if you're a heavy sleeper like me, this isn't the way to go obviously. You will be better off buying a loud and noise alarm clock rather than risk you self not waking up.

If you are done narrowing your choices here is something you may want to include, never buy an alarm clock that needs to be plugged if you're going to a remote place or a place that usually has power failures. Try buying battery operated ones to avoid risks of not waking up.

Like all alarm clocks this too has a disadvantage. The battery might die before your alarm goes on or shaking this device may cause the battery to move and this may stop the clock from functioning.
