does this timer feature a 5-minute warning beep? (e.g., if I set it to go off at 30 minutes, will it give a warning beep when there is 5 min left?)

No. I think you'd have to set it for 25 minutes, and then 5 to get a warning. The only timer I've ever found with a warning beep (which I think is very helpful!) is the Teach Timer. It's kind of old now, and pricey. Good luck.

No - no warning beep. When time expires, it beeps for 1 minute and then stops. It starts to count up after it goes off - showing you how much time has elapsed.

It has a self timer built in for one to three hours. It is not designed to come on every 30 minutes. Sorry.

No. The Start/Stop button beeps every time it is pushed, so whenever you are done using the stopwatch there will be a beep. The alarm sounds when used as a timer.

No. I beeps at the end of the time only. BTW, I discovered that it also can act as a stopwatch (i.e., counting up). I don't think there's any alarm in that mode, although I haven't let it go to 99+ minutes to see. (grin)

It beeps and turns off when it's getting low...mine hasn't ever run out completely. Also it says will go for up to 45 hours. That is obviously on the lowest setting. I run mine from 11pm to about 10am on medium setting so I make sure to fill it the next night before hand or it will stop midway through my sleep. Hope this helps...

Hey H.G. Coon, thanks for that hint. I've had my timer for a long time but never noticed that little thing on the back where you can change the basic time from minutes ("M") to hours ("H"). To M. Nieto: H.G. Coon is right! On another feature I like about this timer, you can turn the beep sound off. This is good for a number or reasons, but one reason is that you can set the timer without it going beep beep beep when you input the time you want to count back from. If a person cuts the beep off and forgets to turn it back on, the thing vibrates real good when the designated time runs out whether the beep is on or off. Hey H.G. Coon, thanks for that hint.

It does beep when it's done. There are no instructions on silencing the beep. Sorry. I like it telling me when it's done.

I believe its a certain length of time. I marked the date on the timer when we installed it last time and it started beeping almost a year later. Also, the timer isn't attached to the filters. It's something that you and set/attach near by to remind you to change it.

The timer can be set for 1 minute and will beep at one minute, you would then depress the "start/stop" button once to stop the alarm, and then again to restart. It will continue to time off in one minute intervals; that is, you don't have to reset the minute each time, just depress the button twice - so that is easy/good. The downside is the buttons are proud and could be easily bumped so I believe you'd have to carry it in your hand.

The alarm will stop under 5 minutes of ringing. I don't know how long exactly, but under that.

So I just tested mine and it does beep about 4 times every 10 seconds but it's not too loud or intolerable. Justenough to create a sense of emergency. I sized mine out for 60+ min of Critical Communications runtime but these are really meant to be used for short-term save everything and shut down functionality. You may be able to turn the beeping off but honestly, it's not too obnoxious.

Yes, it shuts off and beeps, except when using the "cook-by-timer" feature. I believe it is because you can add more time after the first setting, so you would have to actually turn it Off when you are finished. All the other features turn off automstically.

This has a start/rest beep (you can set the # of beeps) There is only 2 settings there is no warning beep.

The timer beeps according to which event is ending. The top event beeps in sequences of one. The second beeps in sequences of two. Three for three, four for four. It will beep until you turn it off.

It does NOT keep beeping until you turn it off. The beeping sound is not loud enough to hear a few rooms away. Mine quit beeping after about a month but it still counts down time.

It keeps beeping for a few seconds, perhaps 15 - 30, I have never counted. Once it beeps and finally stops, it does not beep again as a reminder.

It is a very low beep. I ended going to one of those dollar type stores and purchasing some kitchen timers. There is also a website that has visual timers.
