Online alarm clock for 2:05 am
Hand the winter drive to Victoria’s ski slopes over to the next driver at 2:05 am, with the alarm marking the change behind the wheel. It gives them a clear cue to take over while you confirm the route and check that the car is ready for the colder roads ahead. By 3:00 am, the new driver can be settled into the trip rather than watching the clock.
Keep the browser running after setting the alarm, and leave the screen awake with enough charge or a power connection. Closing the browser, letting the phone sleep, or shutting down the computer may prevent the alarm from sounding, which could delay the ski-slope driving handover. Set the volume before resting and test that sound is audible above conversation, ventilation and road noise.
Once the handover is done, use the remaining night hours to protect the buffer before the next job that morning. Note the next planned stop, allow extra time for winter conditions in regional Victoria, and avoid filling the schedule so tightly that one slow section affects everything after it. A separate alarm for the later task can preserve that margin without making anyone repeatedly check the time.
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.
