Review: A very nifty travel alarm - well done Marathon! - I've been looking for awhile for just the right travel alarm and definitely found it with this Marathon CL030023 clock. It is the perfect solution for anyone looking for a compact well designed product that does its job - it will definitely wake you up. The alarm is not annoyingly loud at first, but progressively gets louder until you shut it off. It's a perfect size with a display that is easily read across the room and definitely very easily from bed. There is a button at the base you can press and the clock will illuminate so you can read it in the dark, and the light goes out immediately when you release the button. I don't care much about date and inside temp for a travel alarm, but it has that for those who like that. It is very easy to set up and really it isn't necessary to read the instructions to do so. I like that is uses an AAA battery which can be bought anywhere. I'm tired of electronics with goofy one off batteries that are harder to find. It folds up easily and is very compact. The only minor criticism I would have is you have to physically pick up the clock and slide a switch to the off position to turn off the alarm, vs there being a quick shut off button. But no biggie for me and I suppose the advantage of that is it kinda forces you to deal with getting up. It does however have a snooze alarm function, but you have to elect to use that function when you set the alarm, but moving the switch to the snooze position when you activate the alarm. Then you simply press the "light illumination button" at the base of the alarm to activate snooze and I believe it will allow you three snooze cycles. I personally don't use snooze since I actually need to get up or I wouldn't set the alarm in the first place. There are many reviews that mention another potential issue and that is the position of the light illumination button. When traveling and in a suitcase, the light could be activated with clothing or something in the suitcase constantly pressing on the button, thus draining the battery. That is a definite issue, but one I avoid by simply traveling with the clock in the box it came in which doesn't add much dimension to an already small device. Of course one could also remove the battery when traveling, but that would then require setting time, etc each day. Anyway, for me this is a great clock and without a doubt the best travel alarm I've every owned.
Review: Nice Travel Clock! - I've had more than a few of these over the years and this one functions very well. It packs well (4" L x 2.5" W x 5/8" D). In an open position, it stands 4.25" tall. The turn and twist, spring loaded, function to open/close operates as expected. Setting the clock, date, etc, is straight forward and fairly simple. The temperature is an added bonus. The view window is 1 5/8" x 1 3/8" with the clock numbers standing approx. 5/8" tall. The alarm sounds as a two-beep for approx 5 seconds and then to a constant continuous beep for one minute. Hitting the snooze button buys you four minutes. However, if, for some reason, you do not hear the alarm after one minute, it shuts off (i.e., you didn't touch the snooze button). This clock has an automatic built in "snooze" feature and this process will start again in four minutes (again...without ever touching the snooze button). In a small to mid size hotel room, it is fairly loud / annoying and woke me up no problems whatsoever. The spring load in a closed position works adequately but I put a small rubber band around it to keep in place. If the clock is set / running while in the suitcase, carry-on, etc., the snooze button is an issue and will drain the battery. My recommendation: don't put the battery in until you have arrived at your destination. Light feature: by hitting the snooze button, the view screen illuminates blue for a period of 4-5 seconds. There is a slight hum during this process and is only slightly noticeable. Overall...for the price, a very functional item for any traveler at generally half the price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Travel Clock
*by C***W on May 23, 2017*

I needed a travel clock, something that was compact, readable in the dark, and easy to operate. The Marathon travel clock delivers. It delivers on all counts. As with all digital products, the Marathon travel clock requires some study to operate with ease (I am a baby boomer), but this is the case with all modern electronic equipment. If you can do, then do it even if you are providing a solution for which there is no problem. (This opinion should be taken as a comment more on me than the clock.) One final note, I do not downgrade the Marathon clock with four stars. I give four stars to all products that operate as advertised, reserving five stars for the rare instance when a product or a vendor goes above and beyond reasonable expectations. In all fairness, Marathon has had no opportunity to do this because it delivered all that it promised as promised.
