Can I set sleep timer in dark without looking at it?

Yes, you can, and it's very easy to do so. All you have to do is hold down on the power button for about two seconds, and release, and that will put you in the sleep mode to where you can then set the amountof time that you want for the radio to shut off. Very easily done in the dark!

yes but it takes practice - - the 5 sleep settings scroll by when activated, and the last setting used is the first to appear - - to activate, you press and hold the on/off button - - you then hear two very faint "clicks" a microsecond apart -- the first click indicates the process has started, the second click indicates the first timer setting has appeared and it will be the last setting used - - you immediately release the on/off button at that instant and you have set the timer for that setting -- but if you want a different timer setting from the last setting, you have to look at the screen to see when that setting appears so that you will know when to release the button -- I do not find this procedure to be a problem, since I always use the same setting as the last time, so I know to release the button instantly on the second click and I will have the setting I want. This CC radio is great for my nighttime usage, it has all the features that I would want in a pocket radio.

The answer is yes -- I have discovered that when the "beep" feature is properly set, the system will "beep" when the sleep timer function starts - - and when it starts, the first sleep timer function to show will be the last timer function that was used -- so as long as you want the same timer function that was used the last time, the instant you hear the "beep" you will release the "on/off" button and you will have the sleep timer setting that you want - - sight unseen.

Yes. There are both options. You can set it so the light changes from "sleeping bunny" to "awake bunny" without noise. The other option is with sound and it sounds like a rooster when it goes off.

Yes, you can. Push Menu and use the middle two keys to go to System Settings. Select the Tool item. Select Power Off Settings. Use the middle two keys to set a countdown time in minutes. Works just fine on mine (Firmware 2012/03/15 1.0.23.0315)

There is a Snooze timer setting on the model I have. I have never used it as I primarily got this for its small footprint to attach my ITouch as a clock.

No, you can only use it to set the number of hours it should stay on before turning itself off.

No. The unit has a light sensor that will not allow motion sensor to turn on until dark.

There isn't a way to turn it off. It's only on when it's dark and it's not overly bright. Just enough to be able to see where it is to touch.

No, you can't and it can be distracting if you're using the unit for relaxing, sleeping, etc. What I've done is to put a small thin canvas piece of cloth around it; it blocks the strong led light and yet you can see some of the led light for interpreting what the unit is doing. Hope it helps.

Back light is toggled on/off with a button on the keyboard. As far as I know, there is no way to time it. You can customize the colors and switch them with the profile and macro keys.

Yes. I don't remember the setting in the menu right off, since I rarely turn it on.

Yes, just set the Sleep Mode, it counts down from 90 minutes, etc.. Please read the manual!

Yes. We installed a timer that is simply a single switch. We don't use the nightlight feature.

No, I don't think there is any way to turn it off. The timers will run until they hit 24 hours and then zero out. I'm not sure why you would want to turn it off, unless you were concerned about battery life. I use mine daily for nap and evening sleep times, plus i use the night light periodically. The current batteries lasted 6 months.

Yes you can turn off the backlight by pressing the top bar where it says dim

No, but you can set it on ultra dim. I need an extremely dark room to be able to sleep and it doesn't bother me at all.

There's a small button on the right that lets you choose between a bright back light, a dim back light or no back light. Even the dim is too bright for me. I turn it off but then have no way to see the time.

Sure can! I have mine turn on at "dusk" off at 11pm then on at 5am and off at "dawn". I've even adjusted my dusk and daw -/+ 15 min to give a buffer. When you program your area it'll ask you confirm the sunrise and sunset, you can easily adjust them. These really are set and forget.
