Oregon Scientific Rra320P Retro Radio Projection Alarm

Oregon Scientific DP-200

Advantages: Motion sensor, Radio controlled, Bright projection
Disadvantages: Cost £85 - £100, Radio signal dependant on weather

I have been using a previous Oregon Scientific projection clock for the past couple of years, and I have been very pleased with it. I decided to get this model because one of the main points is that the projection is strong enough to be seen in daylight. Even on a really bright day, it is still possible to see the time on the ceiling or wall, unlike previous models. As with previous models, it has the radio controlled time feature, meaning that it is always up to date, and requires no manual changes. Although it is possible to turn the radio signal receiver off, and do it manually. This may have to be done if you are using it in an area of weak or no signal. With this clock, it has a switch so that it can be taken anywhere in Europe, and it should continue to work. The clock also came with an outdoor temperature sensor which ...

Oregon Scientific DS9300 - Get what you pay for

Advantages: Price, Extras
Disadvantages: Performance, Robustness

My Experience? I've had the Oregon Scientific digital camera for around 2 years now, and overall I have been disappointed. However I have a little relief in the fact that I paid very little for it through a TV bidding channel, Bid-up TV, I recall that it was about £100 along with an array of free image editing and gallery software. Ever since I received the camera it has gone down hill consistently. I know others have had good experiences with this camera, so it would appear to be on an individual basis, but do take heed. Also as other owners have reported the camera will often freeze on random occasions. To resolve, remove the batteries and replace them, this usually makes the camera work again. Even the slightest little tap will crash the camera and it will turn off. Schematics? The camera has a very simple, conventional ...

Review of Oregon Scientific DS 9300

Alarmingly Good!

Advantages: Alarm gets me out of bed every morning
Disadvantages: Build quality and design don't look the best.

Of all the things I expected when I upgraded my mobile phone, the need to buy a new alarm clock wasn't among them. Unfortunately, for all the things my new phone does bigger and better than the old one, the alarm on the Nokia was far better than the one on the Sony Ericsson. I'll never know whether I slept through the alarm or inadvertently turned it off when I was trying to set it, but within a few days of having changed my mobile phone, the new one failed to wake me up, which was something the alarm on the old one never did. I decided on the Oregon Scientific projection alarm clock largely because my flatmate had one and it looked pretty funky with the time displayed on the bedroom ceiling. I'm not normally one for fancy gadgets, but that did seem like a pretty cool feature. In addition, she sleeps quite deeply, as do I ...
