We have one that projects the time on our ceiling right above our bed in red.

It’s awesome, literally open your eyes and look up and the current time is there.

It also plays several different white noise sounds like the ocean or rain and we use that nightly.

Y’all hit me with some links for the ceiling projection models. If the sounds are included, that’s fine.

This is what I’ve used for years, but I’ve had occasional issues accidentally hitting “off” instead of “snooze” when the alarm goes off. It hasn’t caused me to actually be late yet, but I have woke up yelling, “Oh, shite” a handful of times as I go into sprint mode to get ready for work.

Got a Bose Wave radio. Stopped using it because I was hitting the snooze too much.

Yes.

But I usually wake up before the alarm goes off .

Now I automatically wake up at 3 AM, I don't even set the alarm anymore.

That’s the exact model that I have. The thing is 30 to 35 years old. Back when GE actually made good stuff.

I primarily use mine for the time projection on my ceiling as well. I don't obsess over this, but when I wake up for a bathroom trip, or to let the dogs out, I like glancing at the time and telling myself, "X hours until the alarm goes off." The only time I get frustrated is when there's 30 minutes or less remaining. Then the thought becomes "why couldn't I (or the dogs) wait another 20 minutes until I'd be up anyway?"

It is probably closer to 40 years old.

My MIL got me an atomic clock that’s motion censored, and it might be the greatest gift she ever gave me (besides her daughter, I guess ). Never have to set it and it’s dark unless I wave a hand in front of it to check the time. It also has the option to project the time on the ceiling, which I don’t use, but it’s kinda cool.

My favorite alarm clock was one that an ex got me from Spencer’s. It was two cavemen drumming on a log. But it’s been lost to time, and they don’t make them anymore.

That’s a good idea. I have a Monster power conditioner in my den that has a voltage readout that I covered with black electrical tape. Time to try your idea on the clock radio.

Mine is four minutes off, drives me insane.

Do they even make them with AM anymore?

I have one, modern little cube type and the display auto-dims at night. Has the usual buzzer and radio alarms but also plays nature sounds. Not really great nature sounds though, the birds chirping one sounds like the birds are hate-fricking each other.
