The Technologies Behind Your Acctim Clock



Acctim, being one of the best known and most trusted brands of alarm clocks around, have made it their business to develop and use the latest technologies available in their exciting range of clocks. At Ryness (http://www.ryness.co.uk/) we are sure that our customers of LED light bulbs who are used to our expertise in the lighting business will appreciate the equal expertise shown by this brand in their own field. Here we would like to focus on three different types of time keeping technology and how Acctim have utilised them.

Quartz Technology is the product of continued work through the ages to improve the accuracy of timekeeping, using the resonating nature of the quartz crystal to provide a constant electronic signal which is ideal for keeping time. The first time keeping piece using quartz technology was created in 1927 and today it is the world’s most widely used time keeping technology due to its accuracy and inexpensive nature, it is featured in many computers as well as clocks. For just £9.99 reduced from £11.99 we have the Acctim 160mm Button Wall Clock with quartz movement technology. This stylish clock features a spun metal dial, metal case and built in stand, its smooth finish and no fuss look would be at home in any school or business premises.

As well as utilizing the latest time keeping technologies, Acctim clocks have also created one of their own, developing and patenting the intuitively clever ‘Smartlite’. This eco-friendly electricity or battery saving feature switches on a gentle back light when your room is dark so the clock can be seen, then automatically turns it off when it’s light. The Acctim Smartlite Sweeper Alarm Clock (£24.99) has this handy feature as well as non-ticking sweeping second hand and crescendo alarm. As does the Acctim 13253 Smartlite Travel LCD Alarm (£11.99) which also has snooze and an extra bright back light for easy viewing.

Radio controlled clock technology is now used in all kinds of time keeping devises from wall and desk clocks to travel alarms and beautiful wrist watches. Their accuracy cannot be denied for they’re always right. As long as they are in working order they display the correct time down to the exact second, they achieve this by having a radio inside which receives a signal direct from an atomic clock situated elsewhere. The Acctim Millau Radio Controlled Travel Alarm (£7.99 reduced from £12.50) uses this technology and is available from Ryness. It has full automatic setup so it will be ready to use as soon as the batteries are inserted and also automatically adjusts for summer/winter time changes.
As you can see, Acctim has an array of inventive time keeping devices to suit all needs which we at Ryness (http://www.ryness.co.uk/) think reflects our own innovative nature. They are specialists in their field as are we with our unrivalled variety of LED light bulbs and other cheap lightbulbs available across the UK.
