Product basics

What is Rise5?

Rise5 is a low-tech bedside alarm clock designed to help you keep smartphones out of the bedroom and support better sleep habits.

What makes Rise5 different from a normal digital clock?

• No WiFi or Bluetooth
• No always-on glow (the display only lights up briefly when touched)
• Simple, distraction-free design
• No snooze feature

Does Rise5 have a bright screen at night?

No. The display stays off unless you touch the clock. When touched, a dim light shows for about 5 seconds.

Does Rise5 have a snooze button?

No — Rise5 is intentionally designed without snooze.

Alarms

How many alarms does Rise5 have?

Rise5 has two alarms.

How do the two alarms work?

• Alarm 1: your main wake-up time
• Alarm 2: a backup alarm you can check/activate with a quick touch (useful if you want a fallback time without reaching for your phone)

Can I change the alarm sound?

Rise5 uses one alarm tone.

Can I change the alarm volume?

At the moment, the alarm is preset to a medium volume and there is no volume control.

Power & charging

Is Rise5 battery powered?

Yes. Rise5 uses a rechargeable battery so it can sit on your bedside without being plugged in.

How do I charge it?

Rise5 charges via USB-C. A USB-C to USB-C cable is included.

How long does the battery last?

Battery life depends on how often you tap to check the time.
As a guide: - Around 196 days at ~24 checks per day - Around 136 days at ~60
checks per day - Around 104 days at ~96 checks per day

What happens if the battery runs out?

If the battery is fully drained, the alarm won’t go off. We recommend charging regularly so you’re always covered.

EMF & bedroom use

Is Rise5 low EMF?

Rise5 is designed to be low EMF when unplugged. Like most rechargeable devices, EMF can be higher while charging.

Can I leave it plugged in overnight?

You can, but if your goal is the lowest EMF bedside setup, we recommend charging during the day and using it unplugged at night.
