I bought this and after six months the projector function does not project. Even then the number projected on the ceiling was too small, and had no focus or adjustments. Unless you can read an eye chart without glasses you may be able to see what time it is when you wake up in the middle of the night. Yes the light is still on but it is so dim that you would not know it is still on . I have seen this problem when companies use cheap LCD Diode's. They dim due to bad design, to much heat. Buy the Oregon scientific clock at least it works and I can read it on my ceiling without putting on my glasses.
