Divine Time

The purpose is to give a home positive energy and eternal cheer each hour. Each house can use inspiration, and with this clock, that is what you get. Positive verses are shared every hour so that your home always retains the spirit of warmth.

Features
- Antique Look and Feel
The clock face is quite beautiful, with an antique look and feel to it. A simple design, it fits most houses.
- Bilingual
There are English and Spanish options available.
- Quiet Mode
There is a night time mode which is set to silent with glow in the dark clock hands. In fact, it has a built in light sensor that turns it on and off based on day or night.
- Off
You have the option of turning off the scripture reading if you so choose, and it will still function as a clock.
Pros
- Works Well
Like an clock, the design works wells for homes, with regard to telling time.
- Display Stand
When you order this clock, you also get a display stand with it. This allows for those who do not want to hang it on a wall to still display it and hear the verses it has to share.
Cons
- One Type
The downside to this is that anyone interested in having scriptures read out loud each hour might want a different design. There is the single design only at this time, so if it does not match or fit the house, there are no other options. On a similar note, there are not additional sizes either.
- Voices
You cannot change the voice by which the scriptures are read. For some houses the occupants might prefer a specific gender or tone, even accent, but this is not an option at this time. The only available voice is more than likely meant to be symbolic of a god, since it is a powerful male voice. However, this low tone could be frightening to some.
- Scripture
Another downside is that you have no control over the scriptures which are read. There are twelve verses pre-programmed. This means that each day, each hour, you get the same verse over and over. Changes cannot be made to the verses. They might not be the most inspirational or uplifting for all consumers. You also do not get the choice of specifying which religious texts are used, which can be particularly troublesome for different sects which might use different translations or books.
- Material
Unfortunately, too, there is no information provided by the company about the materials used for the clock. The colors for the perimeter frame seem to be wood, but it could easily be a wood colored paint over something like plastic. If this is the case, it might not fit every home.
- Batteries
It does require batteries to operate. This means that in addition to the normal lifespan for clock batteries you have to replace them sooner to account for the power used to speak the verses.
How it's Different from Competitors
Aside from its functionality as a clock, it stands out among its competitors by reading the scriptures. As of late, there are other devices which read scriptures out loud, or have scriptures printed on the clock face, but none quite like this one.
Does It Really Work?
The same as any other battery powered clock, yes the Divine Time clock works.

Sensor
The Sensor is kind of weak. So I think the company should adjust it so it will get the light more easy.

The clock has a sensor above the number 12. It will work when any light is point the sensor (sunlight, flashlight, light bulb on) It's work for me. The clock does not work because does not receive any light directly to the sensor.

Bought 2 from Ollies and neither one has recited a scripture yet. Very, very disappointed. Glad I checked it before sending to a friend for Christmas last year, 2017. Was hoping it would work for this Christmas 2018. Still not working.

Will not Speak Scriptures
Love this clock my friend gifted to me and it worked for a brief time. Now it will not speak the scriptures. It is keeping good time, but that's it. Hmm very disappointed. I have no way to return it, but it doesn't sound like a new one would be any different!

Works Great!
Bought this off the clearance rack at store figuring wouldn't be wasting but $10.00 if it didn't work. We have had it about 8 months and it works great. The scripture reading stops when the sun goes down and starts again at sunrise. Also on very cloudy days the scripture reading does not happen but the clock works great 24 / 7. The man's voice is very soothing - "strong" sounding yet peaceful. Husband and I are both pleased with the clock; we think $10.00 was a great deal. Also stand comes with it which we use. It's not quality material but nice enough and it works in our den.

Divine Time Clock
My husband purchased 3 of these from"as seen on tv" for Christmas gifts. I am so thankful we opened them. The clocks worked but no scriptures, the frame and stand was good guality, the scripture voice was just not there. I could not believe that ALL 3 clocks had the same defect. Huge dissapointment!

I'm having the same issue. Read the instructions and realized it has a light sensor so it does talk at night, so I put it in more light and it worked once, but it will not work again even in direct sunlight.
