Uses a standard 9v battery.

Priced for a yuppie.

Thanks, but "extra loud" is not what I'm looking for. My hearing
is excellent.

I'm sorry you're poverty-stricken. $30 for a kitchen timer isn't
out of the budget for me. Perhaps you should get a job and
pull yourself up by your bootstraps.

about

Huh. We don't even think about that when we buy stuff.
I do and with what batterys are used in the cordless phones.

Cordless phones. How quaint.
Yeah, I dont use them anymore.
It has to be standard rechargeable format AAs.
Other features are much more important
than the type of battery the gadget takes.
It makes sense to include the type of battery as well.
I have a kitchen timer that takes a button battery (or two, if
memory
serves).
It's a pain to change. I wish the thing had a AAA or AA battery.

So you should have considered that when you bought it, stupid.

Its most important feature was that it have a numeric keypad. That's
used every day. I only have to change the batteries once in a while.
Still makes sense to consider more than just the most important
feature,
stupid.

Really, the keypad was the ONLY feature. There aren't that many digital
kitchen timers with keypads. I would have settled for one that plugs
into
the wall.
Works much better to have one of the smart speakers and do it by voice.
No need for any battery at all with those.

I won't have one of those spy devices in my house.

More fool you.

Those are by far the worst batterys.

Yeah, stupid price. An echo dot costs about the same,
doesnt need a battery, much easier to use as a timer and
does vastly more. Only paranoid fools refuse to use them.

It has a 4-step volume control and you can further soften it with a piece of heavy tape over the 2mm speaker hole.
