Online alarm clock for 2:13 am
Handing the generator check to the next person at a DOC hut is easier when the 2:13 am alarm marks the change clearly. Tell them what needs checking, where the torch and key are, and whether anything unusual happened earlier. The alarm leaves a clear checkpoint before 3:00 am, rather than relying on someone noticing the time during a quiet night.
A generator check can be missed if the alarm is quieter than rain on the roof, conversation, or the machinery itself. Set the browser volume high enough to be distinct, then test the sound before the handover while you can still adjust it. The generator check will receive no browser signal if you close the alarm page or allow the computer to sleep, so leave a separate backup with the incoming person.
Before the outgoing person settles down again, agree on where the alarm will sound and who will silence it. At 2:13 am, voices, footsteps, and a loud signal can carry through a small hut and wake other people. Keep the computer near the person taking over, use a tone they will recognise promptly, and avoid placing it against a wall shared with sleeping bunks.
