Input:
Question: Is the alert actually continuous, or does it stop beeping after some amount of time?
Document: I bought this to use at work, for tracking how long it took to do a series of four related tasks. The timer works wonderfully for that purpose and I love that I can write each task on the whiteboard. Very convenient.The only thing that I do NOT like is that there is no way to turn off the sound. This device makes a beeping sound every time you start or stop one of the timers.
I use this to keep track of how much time I actually spend doing things since I get a lot of distractions---I just don't know where the time goes. Found out I was underestimating everything from repairing the car to mowing the lawn.Don't bother with any time management books or plans until you can learn to estimate how long tasks take. Then I think you can stop the cycle of making ridiculously impossible lists and reading time management books to figure out why you can't finish your list.
This is good if you need multiple timers. Don't really care for the beeping when you set a timer but the alarm is loud and continuous. I took a star off for the weak magnets that don't allow me to use it on some surfaces. So far, so good.
Every time you push a button to set the timer, it is emits a crazy, cringe-worthy loud beep. One last complaint:  The magnet is super weak. I have a stainless steel fridge, but I have to stick the timer right above the water dispensor to stop it from drifting down the fridge door.
The timer is well designed functionally. Each of the 4 timers can also function as a stop watch by pressing the start/stop button. When using as a timer and time has expired, each timer beeps every second above the set time. When it does this, each timer uses a different number of beeps to indicate which timer is going off. After it passes zero, it starts counting up so when you get back to it you can see how much time has passed.
POSTSCRIPT:  Today I noticed that this timer does not have a "second" timer; that is, you cannot set it for 3 minutes and 30 seconds, only hours and minutes. Most of the time that is not a problem, but, like today, I needed a timer that would count down a given amount of seconds. The timer does count down seconds; it is just that you cannot set it for seconds.
best timer ever due to its four timer in one option. also, the alert signal is very loud and the readouts are large and clear.
i am not to thrilled with this because despite reading the instructions completely i could not get the dumb thing set right. It made me very frustrated. It seems to actually work...i think, i kept pressing buttons that didnt seem to respond , but i am giving it credit and assuming im doing it wrong.
You cannot use the timer without having one hand to stabilize it or you risk knocking it to the ground. A major inconvenience if you are cooking and only have one free hand. Just to clarify, I never actually dropped the timer, so it is not malfunctioning as a result of damage I may have caused.
Useful and handy. However, I wish the timers would return to zero or the last setting when the &#34;stop&#34; button is pressed.
Answer: As far as i can tell it is continious. i did not see a limit in any documenation and so far it continies beeping until i turn it off. The longest time has been near 2 minutes. Hope this helps.
