Online alarm clock for 1:18 am
While arranging the washing ahead of time, set the alarm for 1:18 am so the load can go on during the overnight electricity tariff. That leaves a practical window before 2:00 am to sort the clothes, measure detergent and check that the machine is ready without starting it early.
Because this laundry reminder may sit behind whatever else you are viewing, keep the alarm page open and make sure its sound is allowed before moving to another tab. A background tab can continue counting while you use the browser, but ending the browser session or letting the phone sleep means the laundry alarm may not sound. Use a separate alarm clock as backup if missing the tariff window would disrupt the plan.
Once the washing setup is settled, allow extra care for any trip needed around 1:18 am. Australian roads may be quiet, yet reduced lighting, overnight works and wildlife can make the journey less predictable. Check the route before leaving, add a few spare minutes, and avoid treating empty streets as a reason to rush back for the alarm.
Common questions
Can I set more than one alarm at a time?
This page is built around a single alarm at a time. For multiple alarms, open a separate tab for each one and set a different time in each, keeping every tab open until it's rung.
Why use a browser alarm instead of my phone's built-in one?
Mainly for reliability against silent mode, do-not-disturb, or a phone left charging out of earshot. It's a useful backup or a desk-based alternative, though it depends on this tab staying open rather than running in the background of your phone.
Is there a cost to use this?
No, it's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you set it. It just needs the tab left open until the time you've chosen arrives.
Will the alarm still ring if I close the browser tab?
No. The alarm only runs while this tab stays open — closing it, or closing the browser entirely, stops the countdown before it can ring. Keep the tab open in the background if you need it to go off later.
