Testing the electrical hook up point

my fold up wind up alarm clock .packed in ive upgraded to my 20 year old battery alarm clock , why do you leave mobile phones on allnight ?we got on ok before ,things can be sorted out next day 

Why would you turn phones off?🤔

I have Apps running in the background, to turn off the phone would disable them. Not good for Home management☹️

One of those apps being a clock and another being the alarm😀

I charged my phone yesterday after 9 days since its previous charge. It was not below half charge but didn't want to forget. If I turned it off from 8pm to 8am I would not miss any calls and could last over 3 weeks without charging. Some smart phones though do get used a lot and soon consume power

apart from when on planes (even then airplane mode) or when instructed to in certain meetings, I never turn my phone off.

You surely don't need your phone on to use as an alarm? I have a 12 year old phone that I use as an alarm. It is switched off for all but 5 seconds a day. It switches on when the alarm time is reached and sounds off. I usually up and dressed by 6.30 am and when it sounds off at 7am I am ready for it. 

Don’t know, Easy. I’ve never tried with it turned off as I never turn it off overnight. Sure as eggs the clock won’t show a display when it’s off! 

Sometimes turning off and powering up again can use more battery than just leaving it on poodling along. 

Wow , so now we're debating between alarm clocks and phones to wake us up  , well ,we take a cockerel 🐔,much more reliable 

If I wake through the night needing the loo I look at the time. If it's anything like.getting up time I stay in bed & hold on. If it's the middle the night I get up, go to the bathroom & then get back in bed with the satisfaction of having hours to before getting up. 😉
