Can the clock be turned off or will it drain the batteries?

As far as I know, my clock is always on and has very little effect on battery life.

I believe not be possible to turn off the clock. But the battery drain is minimal. Sometimes occurs the batteries fail and continue running clock for weeks

You can't disable the clock but the battery drain will minimal while you're not using the radio. You will know the batteries need replacement when the unit shuts off by itself. From what I recall, the battery meter on these units is not accurate.

Don't think it can be turned off--but it's a display like on a digital watch; it won't drain the battery for a long time. One note on the batteries on this radio, however, you can re-charge rechargeable batteries in it, but it doesn't happen automatically you have to set it and it takes like 20 hours. I usually just leave mine 12 or so and it's fine, but I may be shortening the life of the battery to do so. Mostly, I am happy with this radio.

The clock stays on when the radio is off and it does not drain the batteries.

The clock cannot be turned off, but it uses no more power than a digital watch.

It doesn't turn off. It is meant to run a clock which always shows on the screen. Otherwise you can turn off all the other features like radio, charging, etc.

It doesn't turn off. But I'm pretty sure it's just using solar power to run the display when you aren't using it because the batteries never run out. I mean ever. I've had one of these for like 3 years and I haven't replaced the batteries.

There is no need to turn it off. I've had this for two years and batteries are still working. It goes into a low draw sleep mode. Don't worry about it.

I don't remember how to set the clock, just that I found it very easy. For the batteries, especially cheap ones, I found that even in locked position, they tend to drain if I don't use it for a long time (a week or more). So, I took the habit of removing the batteries when I don't plan to use it regularly (whici is the case theses days), f only to prevent acid leak, which happens often with cheap batteries. Otherwise, I easily have 20+ hours of listening with cheap batteries when I use it regularly.

No. The batteries only keep the current time and date. There is a computer chip in the clock which stores all the programming.

There are two different settings. There is a setting where it will stay on all night, and there is a different setting where it turns off after 20 minutes. The switch for the time setting is on the bottom of the animal, next to where the batteries go in, so it does't get changed accidentally.

It it has a clock I've never seen it. No clock. You can program the noises to shut off after a certain amount of time has elapsed or set it for continuous.

Mine shuts off after 2 hours. However, the clock stays on. You'll know when it has shut off because the light becomes a dimmer blue.

Yes this is an option in one of the menus. This can be turned on and off. If you use the GPS it does use the battery a little more then if you don't use it.

It shuts itself off when the batteries run down. You can shut it off manually before then if you want.

Yes, there is an on off switch on the bottom. I always turn mine off when I'm not using it and it's in my case so that the battery doesn't drain and it doesn't do anything when I'm not using it.

I don't think it turns off. Cool thing is, I have never actually had the unit run out of battery! It must have a good battery and super efficient LED's.

I'm not 100% sure, but I do not think you can disable the clock. However, you can control the brightness of the display.

You can mute the alarm but it will still monitor the temp. If leaving frig off for a while taking batt out would save their life.

Unfortunately, you cannot turn it off unless you remove the battery. When you remove the battery, all the memory, including your stride measurement, etc. will be erased and you will have to re-enter all that information when you reinstall the battery. My first battery lasted for well over a year.
