How loud is the "click" on the switch. Would it wake someone up who is sleeping?

You can barely hear the click, I highly doubt it could disturb someone while they're sleeping.

It is very quiet, very similar with a click ticking. Is not completely silent

I don't notice a clicking noise, though admittedly I'm a fairly heavy sleeper & I don't wake up until the maximum light & bird alarm. I would think a loud clicking would awaken me, so I'm voting yours might be faulty.

It is very quiet! Probably NOT what you want. I use one in each of the two windows in my bedroom and sleep through the low sound without a problem. Why not try a portable alarm with "sounds" (some even have timers), or an app on your phone. My son and his wife use pink noise for their kids. Check out 'sleep noise' on the internet. Very relaxing!

Not too bad, still very quite but probably the loudest part of the mouse compared to the button clicks... but still very quiet. It's hard to quantify "loudness" for you but hopefully this context will help. I play video games late a night when my wife sleeps (the only time I can) and she used to always yell at me for the mouse being so load as she was a light sleeper. I bought and use this mouse now (which requires scroll wheel use too) for months and she sleeps through the night without waking up... so it passes the "angry wife" test for me. I hope this helps.

I don't feel it's all that loud but if you are gaming and repeatedly mashing the mouse button hard and fast in a completely silent house I am sure that it could disrupt someone from sleep but I think most mice would do that. This has been my all time fave mouse I have bought 4 of them and been the most happy with both the shape and the way you can weight it to be the right feel for you.

In a quiet room, it's definitely audible. For me, it's not an unpleasant sound, so I only notice the click every once in a while.

Not loud at all compared to some of the other brands of switches I've used. If it is in a rack with passively cooled devices, you will hear it, but it is not loud or obnoxious.

The audible tone/beep is fairly loud, though not obnoxious. I think it's loudness will depend entirely on its location. Under a cushion, for example will have the expected muting effect. In most situations you will find the alarm sufficient, from my experience.

Yes, it makes a fairly loud "click" sound when it switches on and off. I had to replace my 12 year old switch with a new one. Same brand. But this new one is much louder than the old one.

Unless you are are an "extreme sleeper", it WILL wake you up. It is loud - no doubt about it.

Not loud at all. I am a very light sleeper and it hasn't disturbed me yet. Very happy with it.

I have not found the click sound of the mouse to be a distraction. It is not loud to me. The plastic top cover of the mouse bends down to click an internal switch.I have found it to be subdued and hardly noticeable.

Quite loud. Well it depends how close you are to your neighbors, but if you leave in a house I don't think it will wake them up.

There is just a switch. The item that looks like a big button on the front is not a button. I believe it is just the speaker. The switch is a standard sliding switch. If children could reach it, they could turn it off, depending on their age and the location of the alarm. On doors, these are usually mounted at the top of the door, well out of reach of children in normal circumstances. The alarms are also pretty small (about 2.5 inches long), so they don't attract much attention.

its not quiet. You definitely hear and notice when it kicks on or off...but I sleep comfortably ...it does not wake me up

It has a click. I can hear it, but I wouldn't say it's loud. The thing that I like about it is that it has a button that will switch you between the desktop and the tiles screen in Windows 8. You don't have to go to the corners so much.

They do make a very minor click sound. I wouldn't call it loud by any means, but if you're a very light sleeper it could be a problem. I do like that you can set the maximum volume of the alarm and that it starts quiet and works up to the max volume you have programmed. I've never had a clock that does that.
