"Smart" Clocks Keep Pace With Changing Times
Set & Forget® technology puts an end to setting and resetting clock

Lake Geneva, Wis.- The twice-yearly hassle of adjusting clocks for Daylight Savings Time—plus the unpredictable annoyance of resetting them after power outages—is a thing of the past thanks to Chaney Instrument Co.'s patent-pending Set & Forget technology.

As with many of its practical products, Chaney developed Set & Forget in response to consumer feedback. The technology works without signals or antennas; instead, a microchip inside the clock maintains the correct time and communicates the exact moment to change for Daylight Savings Time.

"Our customers have better things to do with their time than go around the house or office every spring and fall resetting all their clocks, and even the shortest power interruptions can turn digital clocks back to '12:00,'" says Chaney General manager Pat Devlin. "Set & Forget is a simple innovation that offers a lot of convenience for busy people."

Chaney launched Set & Forget with numerous battery-operated analog models in a variety of styles that complement any décor from traditional to trendy.

Following the success of Set & Forget on its analog clocks, Chaney rolled out a series of digital alarm clocks with the same technology and a variety of designs and features. Now even moving a clock to another part of the room is easier—with Set & Forget, you can just plug it in and it's set to the right time already.
