Default Battery Backup clock radio

I have two clock/radio television units. Both have battery backups.
I installed fresh 9 volt batteries and when power was restored last
night after a 3 hour outage, the clocks were 8-10 minutes fast. What

Just curious.


Try one of these. They keep near perfect time whether on internal
battery, generator or grid power.
