Going to bed for a 6:51 am alarm

Asleep by 9:36 pm — 6 full sleep cycles, about 9 hours
Asleep by 11:06 pm — 5 full sleep cycles, about 7 hours
Asleep by 12:36 am — 4 full sleep cycles, about 6 hours

A sleep cycle runs about 90 minutes, and most people take around 15 minutes to drop off. Waking at the end of a cycle feels easier than waking in the middle of one.

Online alarm clock for 6:51 am

While getting the lead, water and waste bags ready ahead of the morning dog walk, set the alarm for 6:51 am so nothing is rushed when it sounds. That leaves a short window to check the gate and put on walking shoes before 7:00 am, while the footpath is still more comfortable for paws than it will be later.

A quiet chime can suit a household where everyone else is asleep, while a firmer, repeating tone is harder to miss from another room. Choose the sound with both the surroundings and the urgency of the dog walk in mind, then keep the volume high enough to carry over a fan or air conditioner. Do not rely on this browser alarm after ending the browsing session or allowing the phone to sleep: the dog walk could start late because the alarm will not sound.

Before heading out at this early hour, touch the asphalt with the back of a hand and favour shaded verges where available. Australian mornings can warm quickly, even when the air at 6:51 am still feels mild. If the air conditioner has made the house cool, pause near the doorway for the dog to adjust, and carry water for a longer loop.

Common questions

What happens once the alarm goes off?

It rings through your device's speakers on a loop until you stop it from this page. There's no separate app notification, so make sure your volume is turned up before you rely on it.

Is this alarm accurate across daylight saving time?

It uses your device's local clock, so as long as your computer's time and date settings are correct, it'll adjust automatically when daylight saving time starts or ends.

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.
