# Will my clock radio stay on when the power is out?

Some Magnasonic clocks such as the EAAC470, EAAC601, and CR61/CR62/CR63/CR64/CR65 models include features that use a battery backup to ensure your time settings are saved, and your alarms will sound even when the power is out.

The EAAC200 and EAAC201 models can accept AA batteries which will allow it to retain time settings during a power outage, but any pre-set alarms will not sound.

Which the backup batteries will help retain settings and sound alarms, they will not power the screen of the clock while the power is out.
