eSeasonGear VB80 12 Alarm Vibrating Watch, Silent Vibration Shake Wake ADHD Medication Reminder

Prepped for return. BUT after much time spent on rather complex instructions, decision was to keep it.It is in reality an excellent product for the sole purpose of the VIBRATING alarm feature.Instructions could be more simplified. Difficult and confusing for any layman.Battery life is excellent

Since this watch has only two buttons, it takes awhile to get used to setting it in the beginning. Setting an alarm requires one or two very long presses, which slows down setting an alarm. There are 12 independent alarms, so that sometimes creates a need for multiple button pushes to locate the proper alarm. To keep track, you have to write down the alarms on a piece of paper. Another drawback is that the display characters appear made of fuzzy bars, shining through the watchband. These characters are low resolution but very, very bright. It is a little difficult to put on and take off this watch, as the band is thick and not slippery enough.The watch is highly accurate, and works for many days between USB charging, which is remarkably fast. It is reliable, assuming you set it correctly. It doesn't seem likely to break. It signals an alarm by vibrating on your wrist like a cell phone; other people around you can't hear it. Alarm 1 vibrates a bit more than the others. It is understated in appearance, so it goes well with most clothing, and comes in a range of colors.

Cheap it works, super fast charging. Decent battery life.Vibration is incredibly weak. All I personally pitched this watch was for alarms being set to wake me up. Wanted something to be on my wrist that vibrates to wake me but not make noise. It’s just the vibration is way too weak. I’ve taken it off and handed it to multiple people asking them what did they think about the vibration and all asked agreed that it was too weak.The watch works. Multiple alarms can be set.Simple and easy to program. Has military time as an option. You can check the alarms to see if it’s on or off and switch them easily. Battery life is easy to check. But if this thing was stronger I’d be truly pleased. I wear it because I paid for it. But it’s just a super simple watch for me.

I suffer from terrible time-blindness, and purchased this watch as part of my treatment/toolkit for ADHD symptoms. I used to try to combat this with alarms throughout the day on my phone. I would usually wind up running to turn off an obnoxious sound, and would sometimes forget what I needed to do because my alarm was now off. My alarms also annoyed everyone all day long, and disturbed my husband in the morning, as he wakes up later than me. This watch completely replaced all my daily phone alarms, including my alarm to wake up in the morning. I was worried that I might sleep through it, but the vibration is effective enough to wake me up every time. 12 alarms is plenty to not only set important reminders throughout the day, but also just remind me to look at the clock and be mindful of my time management during parts of the day where I know I get side-tracked or go time blind easily. I'm not rushing to turn a loud alarm off, so I can let the vibrations continue until I follow through with whatever it is reminding me to do. I am never late anymore, and everyone around me is complimentary of how "on it" and prepared I am. Plus, the charge lasts forever, so I only need to charge it 1/week (though it would last longer if I forget) on a day I don't need it. Highly reccomend as an ADHD tool for adults or children.

It is simple, it works well at what it is programmed, it has a nice look… unfortunately after about a month of use, I found out that any sweat evaporated into the band messes with the circuitry. As in it involuntarily sets off the buttons. I randomly look at the watch while I’m at work and I see it trying to reprogram the alarm on its own. I got this to be considerate to my roommates in my apartment when I have to get up at random hours for work. It does the job of waking me, but as a normal daily watch it doesn’t hold up to the day to day use (and yes my job requires a watch that isn’t a phone). Just washing hands can get it to go bonkers. Another thing to note is after a month of use, buttons are noticeably at different elevations. Admittingly I am reprogramming my wake alarms fairly often as I don’t have a set work schedule but this seems too fragile. I understand this is probably used to take medicine on regular set intervals (and thus shouldn’t be reprogrammed so often) but I want others giving this watch a look to set reasonable expectations. It hasn’t affected button use yet, but I have my concerns. This seems more a set it once and done, maybe change timing occasionally as you change prescriptions or something.Other than those outlined, the battery is a mystery. It went from 20% to 90% in like 5 mins, but the watch lasts almost 2-3 weeks with occasional use to check time and daily alarms going off. That’s pretty phenomenal. Again watch is simple, and kinda makes sense it doesn’t take as much power. However, this charging time isn’t always consistent. Sometimes I need to charge for at least an hour before it hits 100%I can only wish it was more durable toward moisture. It can be very useful as a day to day but with that vulnerability to moisture, that limits use for those that perspire or washes hands. For a $20 price tag, it’s painful for a daily use but can be vital for very specific things. Unfortunate that my need is for something that can wake me quietly and durable for day to day use.

I needed a way to wake up during the night without waking up my wife. Found this item on Amazon. The description states the need to be charged every 7 or 8 days. I received the watch on the 8th, and until the 26th of the month it still showed 100%. Now, 7 days later it still shows the charge to be 90%. In addition it very seldom wakes up my wife, who is a very lite sleeper. It is very quiet, and performed very well for my needs.
