The following Cuckoo Clocks use a quartz clock mechanism which means it is battery powered.
Most batteries will last approximately 1 year depending on conditions. All are fitted with manual volume control and shut-off switch. One thing that is unique about a quartz cuckoo is that it has a photo-cell which is a light sensor so you also have an automatic night shut-off. When you turn your lights off at night, it automatically turns off the cuckoo call.
During the call of cuckoo the double doors open and the cuckoo bird comes out. The cuckoo bird actually flaps his wings as he cuckoos to the sound of running water in the background. The call itself is the acutal recording of a cuckoo bird in the wilds.
All of these great models have a 10 day satisfaction guarantee and 1 year warranty.
