Can You Use a 9v battery In an Alarm Clock?
I am planning to bring my alarm clock to Europe for a trip. I would like to use a 9V battery to power it. From what I can tell, with most Alarm Clocks (mine is a Radio Alarm Clock, normal size), only use 9V batteries for back up. Will The Alarm clock function normally if only a 9V battery is used to power it (not plugged in for 7 weeks)?
Thank You.
No, it won’t, as you say, it is for back up to keep the time current but it doesn’t keep the clock functional. Get a battery operated Travel Alarm Clock.

Incense & Peppermints $11.15 This LA band scored one of the Summer of Love-era hits with their #1 Incense and Peppermints , but one listen to this 1967 LP proves that there was a lot more to this group than that anthem. Gorgeous melodies mingle with trippy soundscapes, filthy guitar fuzz and dense harmonies as you also hear Lose to Live; Birds in My Tree; Unwind the Clock , and more.

Why Is Waking Up To An Alarm Clock Radio Such A Good Idea?
There are many good reasons as to why you should use an alarm clock radio to help you wake up in the morning. The main reason is that it is a tried and tested method of getting the brain into gear quickly.
You see as the mind begins to awaken from sleep the alpha wave cycle that has slowed down as it were during the night needs to be restarted.
It needs a means of moving the stream of consciousness from a state of inertia to an alert state. A state that is ready to take on the challenges of the day with vigor, anticipation and excitement. Who wants to be ready for the day in a sluggish lethargic manner? This is what a good alarm clock radio can do for you.
How can this alert state be achieved and how can an alarm clock radio assist you? Well with an alarm clock radio you have a full range of choices you can pre-program. You can pre-set the channel you want to begin with. For instance you can tune into your favorite station and listen to your favorite music.
Personally I like to use the CD function on my portable alarm clock radio and listen to my favorite music by Brahms. This is a gentle way of entering the world of the living from the world of dreams.
The early morning tensions start to slip away to the gentle tones of the Brahms music and my alpha waves start the process of wakening up. I find without this gentle startup I can hit the crankies quite easily for the next three or four hours.
There are a number of different ways you can use your alarm clock radio if you should choose. You can pre-set on rolling channels and you don’t know what you are going to wake up to.
It can be quite a surprise.
There have been a couple of occasions when I have had to suffer hard rock first thing in the morning. But most times I have been pleasantly surprised by different kinds of music and the different stations I have discovered. You can use your CD, get the news, listen to soft music, and be surprised. All in all there is much choice.
Of course, if you are going to bother in the first place to invest in an alarm clock radio it just makes plain sense to get yourself a decent one. There are deluxe models, super deluxe and of course if you want to spend all of your money you can get the super super deluxe models, its just horses for courses.
So spend what you want to spend, but whatever you do invest in a quality product so that you will be happy with it for many years to come.
So get yourself onto the Internet and get searching for that alpha wave early morning resuscitator and good luck!
