Review: an OK clock; at least AM station works....somewhat - Very difficult to find a clock radio that can get the AM station I want. Although the station comes through, there is still a little too much static. FM sound is OK, but a bit "tinny". The buttons are small and close together; so at night, a little difficult to figure out which button I am touching. The volume is on the side so easy to locate. The button to put radio on for certain length of time is the same button as on and off. So, during the night difficult to set it to the 30 minutes that I like. Radio will have to do, as I have been unable to find a radio that receives my AM station. ## Features - Dual Alarm Timer for Weekday / Weekend / Daily / Once Timer Selection and HWS (Humane Wake System) Radio/buzzer - Snooze Timer, Adjustable Nap Timer and Adjustable Sleep Timer - Digital Tuning with 10 Memory Preset Stations (5 FM, 5 AM) - The Easy-to-Read LCD Display is a Soft Warm Color that is Most Conducive to a Good Sleeping Environment with an Adjustable Backlight - Refer to the PDF attached below in Technical Specification for User Manual - Power source type: AC - Included components: product, AC Adapter and manual ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00HQYJ2RK | | Additional Features | Built-In AM Antenna | | Brand | Sangean | | Built-In Media | Owner's Manual, Switching AC Adapter | | Color | Black | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | MP3 Player, Smartphone, Laptop, Tablet | | Connectivity Technology | Auxiliary | | Connectivity technology | Auxiliary | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 941 Reviews | | Display Technology | LCD | | Display Type | LCD | | Enclosure Material | Plastic Metal | | Frequency | 5 Hz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00729288029304 | | Hardware Interface | 3.5mm Audio | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 17.2L x 14W x 5.7H centimeters | | Item Type Name | AM/FM Clock Radio | | Item Weight | 1.5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Sangean America, Inc. | | Mfr Part Number | RCR-5BK | | Model Number | RCR-5BK | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product dimensions | 17.2L x 14W x 5.7H centimeters | | Radio Bands Supported | AM/FM | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | Special features | Built-In AM Antenna | | Style Name | Modern | | Tuner Type | AM/FM | | Tuner technology | AM/FM | | UPC | 729288029304 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 5 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Sangean - **Colour:** Black - **Connectivity technology:** Auxiliary - **Product dimensions:** 17.2L x 14W x 5.7H centimeters - **Special features:** Built-In AM Antenna ## Images ![Sangean RCR-5BK AM/FM Digital Tuning Clock Radio - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61AEDXYZADL.jpg) ![Sangean RCR-5BK AM/FM Digital Tuning Clock Radio - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61WF6wbhZOL.jpg) ![Sangean RCR-5BK AM/FM Digital Tuning Clock Radio - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71JYp021LwL.jpg) ![Sangean RCR-5BK AM/FM Digital Tuning Clock Radio - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Gzk8LFOhL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it have a battery in case of power failure to keep time?** A: It does not. It has a permanent energy storage device (assuming it is a SuperCap or something like that) that provides power for 10 minutes to keep time through brownouts. All settings other than the current time are stored in flash memory so they are permanently retained (alarm times, radio memory, etc.). The lack of a long-term battery may be a disadvantage for some people. For me, it seems like in my locale all we have are brownouts or very long outages, so the back-up batteries in most clocks aren't that useful to me, and you need to replace them every now and then. None of the clocks we have with batteries will actually alarm when the power is out, they just keep time. The power needs to come back on before the set time to get the alarm, which is seldom the case in a long outage. **Q: Can the alarm time be turned back, or only forward? That is, to change from 8:00am to 7:45am, do you have to push the button once for hour and 45 times for minutes?** A: Hours and minutes are set separately. If you are in the hour formatting phase, you cannot change the minutes. They must be set separately, using the same method/formats. To set TIME, press alarm button, press time set till you hear a beep, press tuning up or down to set the hour, THEN PRESS TIME SET AGAIN to set the minutes, and the minute digit will flash. Follow the same direction to set the minutes. Continue the same steps to select weekday/weekend alarms. You continue this process, starting with TIME SET, to select frequencies, bands, and type of alarm (radio/buzzer). When you have finished these settings, within 30 seconds all settings will completed automatically While you are pressing the button t select date and time, the increment comes in hours and minute intervals only.You should have a users manual with this information (page 7). If you don't have a manual, try calling Sangean (800-426-6027). **Q: DOES THE RADIO ACTUALLY WORK, unlike all the rest of the clock radios on the market that won;t stay tuned to a station? Thanks** A: Yes, iit does work. It has digital tuning so you stay on the station. I know what you mean with the other "dial" tuning radios, waking up to static or no sound at all. I've never had a problem with tuning. **Q: How adjustable is the backlight adjustment? Can the backlight be turned off?** A: It's very adjustable and can be made very dim, but you can't turn it off. There is an adjustment screw on the bottom that's easy to access. However, if the backlight is dim, it becomes very difficult to read the clock, particularly at night. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Muy bonito y facil de usar!! *by E***T on 10 March 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐ an OK clock; at least AM station works....somewhat *by D***A on 30 March 2022* Very difficult to find a clock radio that can get the AM station I want.

Esperaba algo mucho mucho mejor por este precio. De hecho hay otros productos de la mitad o menos de precio que hubieran sido mejor que lo que compré. Estoy muy muy muy decepcionado. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sangean RCR-5BK AM/FM Digital Tuning Clock Radio - Sangean PS-300 Pillow Speaker with In-line Volume Control and Amplifier (White) - Sangean RCR-22 Atomic Clock with FM-RDS / AM / Aux-in Digital Tuning Clock Radio, silver, one size --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/269774811-sangean-rcr-5bk-am-fm-digital-tuning-clock-radio](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/269774811-sangean-rcr-5bk-am-fm-digital-tuning-clock-radio) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-30*
