Features

Everything it does, and why.

One rule ran through all of it: whatever your phone was doing on the nightstand, the clock has to do at least as well. Otherwise the phone comes back, and the whole point is lost.

RGB dawn lighting

Full-colour LEDs fill the room before the alarm sounds, building gradually so you wake with the light rather than against it — no jolt, no full volume out of silence. Any hue, any brightness, or off.

Custom MP3 alarms

Any MP3 on the SD card can be an alarm — music, nature sounds, a recording of someone shouting your name. The files live on the clock, so nothing has to be unlocked, streamed or signed into at 7am.

Multiple alarm profiles

Set as many alarms as you need. Each one keeps its own track, its own volume and its own weekday schedule, so weekends can be a different morning entirely.

Full-colour display

A 128 × 160 LCD shows the time, the date and which alarms are armed. Checking the time at 4am is a glance across the room rather than a lock screen in the face.

Dimmable, or off

Turn the brightness down for a dark bedroom, or switch the screen off entirely with one press. The alarms stay armed either way.

WiFi time sync

The clock reads the time from the network, so it is right the moment you plug it in and stays right after a power cut. Nothing to set, nothing to correct.

Optional web interface

Everything is settable from the knob, with no phone involved at all. When it is easier to type — five alarms at once — the clock serves its own page to any browser on your network. Set it up at the desk, leave the phone there.

Updates itself

New firmware is found, verified and installed over WiFi without you doing anything. A failed download leaves the clock exactly as it was.

4 GB card included

The micro SD card ships in the slot with a few tracks already on it, so the clock works out of the box before you add your own.

Settings survive a power cut

Alarms, colours and volumes are written to storage as you set them. Unplug it, move it, plug it back in — everything is where you left it.

Printed in your colour

Twelve filaments to choose from, including clear, stone-textured and multicolour silk. Nothing is printed until you have picked one.

$44.99

Made by a small team rather than a factory, and priced like it — a fraction of what the sunrise clocks in the shops cost, and a one-off payment with no subscription behind it.
