Spinoff to Daylight Saving Time: how many clocks?

So, how many clocks do you have to change?

Two cars
Clock in basement
Water softener
4 thermostats
big clock in L/R
shelf clock in L/R
answering machine
microwave
bathroom clock
DS's room
our room
My watch

Computer sets automatically
Phones set once we get a call
DVR/satellite receiver updates automatically
DW's watch is supposed to update, but this is the first clock change since she's had it, so we'll have to see

16 clocks.... Chat Icon

Re: Spinoff to Daylight Saving Time: how many clocks?

Well write now we live in an apt with not too many clocks, so for DH and I.. the grand total is 4 Chat Icon Each of our alarm clocks and our watch!

We don't need to change the time on the stove because we never changed it the LAST time... so for the first time since October, it's finally accurate!! Chat Icon

Microwave, stove, VCR (yes, we still have one and use it), my watch, my car, kitchen wall clock, thermostat!

Funny thing about my VCR. It's old. Chat Icon And it's still programmed for when DST used to be on a different time schedule. So 3 weeks from now, it will automatically set itself an hour ahead and I can either just wait for that, or change it now and do it again in 3 weeks when it springs forward! Chat Icon

Re: Spinoff to Daylight Saving Time: how many clocks?

Wow! Not that many.
2 cars
microwave
bedroom alarm clock
oven
dvd player
2 watches

our cells and laptops are automatic

I don't think our thermostats are at all programmable. We live in a house, but we rent. Do you think I'm missing anything else?

We also have 2 DVR boxes and 2 computers that set automatically.

Re: Spinoff to Daylight Saving Time: how many clocks?

just 2- my car and the microwave- everything else did it on it's own

I am surprised my car didn't - it did in the fall

I would say my watch- but my watch is self winding and it never shows the right time
