From what I was told this clock has been approved by the United States chess
Federation and the tournament director I got the information of is here in
Virginia. She has two or three blind players in there Chess Club that play USCF
tournament rated games and are allowed to use the clock. I was told that the
clock does not have a delay or increment feature so they normally ask the
tournament Director to add 10 or 15 minutes to the clock before the game is
started to compensate for that time. Also she mentioned that since the clock is
bilingual the English seems to have a bit of an accent and you might want to
play with it to get used to it.
Ciao,

Digital talking chess clock
These clocks have a screen for sighted players and audio feedback
through headphones for visually impaired players. Players can hear the
time on both clocks and which one is running. All features are
accessible including incremental time.
Contact the manufacturer directly.
