How loud is this timer? I would like to use it as tine away for one of my students but i don't want a loud disruptive noise to interrupt the class.

It has a quiet buzzer. Not loud enough for my whole class to hear. Very good for "time outs" for individuals.

It's actually not too loud. I use it for my toddler so he knows when we are transitioning to new activities. I have a baby and she can sleep through it entirely. It's not obnoxious loud and it is not too quiet either. My mother in law uses this for her class and she loves it.

I understand your question perfectly because I too am a teacher. I would have no problem using this at one of my tables during group rotations. It's a about as loud a smart phone medium volume. The sound lasts about five seconds. The red light blinks for about 30 seconds. I think it could easily be used at a table without any disruption to the whole class.

It's not extremely loud so it won't be distracting, but I would recommend a good battery because mine died after a few uses.

Actually, my husband uses this timer (I use the timer on my iPhone). But he says that the timer has a "reasonably loud bell." I hope that helps

There is a loud and not as loud. I have duct tape over the speaker and put it in a drawer and can still hear it just fine. Really good investment. We use ours every night monitoring kids getting up and out of bedrooms.

I have use this timer for about a year and it has been great. It does seem to go through batteries fairly quick. There is no way to disable the sound by pressing a button. I would imagine though that it would be possible to disable the sound by opening up the timer itself and disconnecting the wire from the speaker. I have done that before on numerous kitchen timers.

this is the only unit i have ever had so it is hard for me to say. it is not loud, but you can tell it is on. the higher the setting the louder it is, but it is not annoyingly loud. sorry i could not be more helpful!

Hello Jen, At first the clicking noise is semi loud but under the desk in a classroom setting I don't think anyone would really hear it. Plus once it is used a while it doesn't make the clicking noise. I would say the noise of the Klixx is the same level as a clock in your home

Yes, this timer is loud. My 93 year old mother has trouble hearing, and when she uses the timer she can hear it. I recommend this timer!

It is noisy. They all seem to be. I use it in a corner of the house that is isolated from others being bothered by the noise. Tension doesn't change noise appreciably. Turn the tv up, set the timer and remind yourself that you are getting a workout.

How much noise does it make ?? This is an electronic timer and I don't think it makes anymore noise than the audible click you may here when it is programmed to turn on (or off). You may have it confused with analog timers that make a slight rattling noise as long as they are plugged in. This timer is very quiet.

It's pretty loud...but I use it in my English class and for my dance squad. It puts out great loud sound.

You determine what the "appropriate level of noise" is by simply pressing a button. I used mine in my kindergarten class and set the level only one up from the most sensitive setting. I gave the students a three strike rule (with a consequence after three strikes) and they adjusted very well. I used that setting when the class was supposed to be working quietly, not while I was teaching. My classroom was so quiet it was amazing... and the change happened immediately.

I don't know about compared to others because it's the only one I've owned, but you can hear it in the other room. I won't use mine while others are still sleeping, but if they are awake, I don't think it's loud enough to be a distraction.

Ha- yes, I know all about noisy fourth graders! :) Yes, I think it would work as long as you play around with the settings. It will detect the noise closest to it the best so keep that in mind.

Yes it will work, but I doubt it will be loud enough for a classroom. I really would recommend something larger.

Mine is quiet until it is under load. I use it as an alarm clock to wake the kids for school. Can't use it on weekends until after 9am.

I bought the Blue Moon Timer and Stopwatch instead because I wanted the sound only when the timer went off. I don't believe the Conair worked silently. I like the Blue Moon timer very much. It has a three-tone chime when the timer goes off. Students in my class like it too.

not sure. I, personally, do not like this timer. It's not nearly loud enough
