Online alarm clock for 1:48 am
Finish packing the car and head off at 1:48 am while the bush road is still quiet and kangaroos are less likely to be gathered along the verges. An alarm at this exact time gives you a clear departure cue rather than letting the final checks drift towards 2:00 am. Keep the keys, water and route notes together so leaving takes one clean movement.
Because the alarm sits well after most phones would normally dim, the browser needs to remain active until it sounds. If the phone falls asleep or the page is dismissed, the alarm may not signal your bush departure at all. Leaving the phone connected to power, with sound turned up and power-saving settings checked beforehand, reduces the chance that the device settles down before 1:48 am.
A departure this deep into the night can leave a useful stretch of sleep on the far side of the drive, so decide where that rest will happen before setting out. Avoid treating the quiet road as a reason to extend the journey beyond your planned stop. Once the car is parked safely, keep the next few hours free of optional errands and bright distractions, making the remaining sleep easier to protect.
Common questions
Can I use this on my phone instead of a laptop?
Yes, it works in a mobile browser the same way, but phones are more likely to lock the screen or sleep, which can stop the alarm from ringing. A laptop or desktop tends to be more reliable for this.
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.
