What is Xronos Clock?
Xronos (from greek Χρόνος [kronos] which means Time) Clock is not your average Alarm clock. It’s an open source, hackable and customizable device. It has a stylish look, is hand made, and it Talks! Heck it will even tell you temperature inside your room or from a remote sensor*!
Xronos has an internal backup battery that will allow it to keep time if you forgot to plug it in … if it’s just for an hour or … for a year or two! All settings are saved to flash memory (EEPROM), so you don’t have to worry about power loss. All your alarm settings and preferences will be there when power comes back on!
Since all audio files are kept on the SD card inside, you can even change alarm tones, or replace voice prompts with your own**.
Xronos has 3 cool looking durable arcade buttons that give you simple access to all of its features.
Xronos Clock Features:
- Dual Custom Alarms with 10 Alarm tones such as melody or special effect such as train, thunder or police siren.
- Change display color to Green, RED or Orange.
- Adjustable Display brightness.
- 12 or 24 hour mode.
- Celsius or Fahrenheit selection for temperature sensor.
New in Version 2:
- Wireless RF module (optional) allows clock to receive data from remote sensors (such as outside temperature and humidity)*.
- Ambient light sensor automatically adjusts display brightness.
- Easy access to micro SD card, backup battery and FTDI.

“What a pleasure it is to have your clock- I had this old Sony cylinder style for over a decade and every time the power went out for more than a few min it would have to be reset from scratch..”
