Well, this may not be the exact spot ,but I thought it was close enough, I have Baby's clock set to wake up roughly arouond 9:15 am and she goes to sleep at 12:15 a.m I have been filming her going to sleep and waking up as well the past couple of weeks, and I allways thought that they got Cranky when woken up while they should be sleeping,but as you can see,
Baby is awake here and it is after 1:00 a.m, at least for a few minutes anyway.
 Besides, she is cute and I needed a new video of her.  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nadC4MmWyKg" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nadC4MmWyKg</a>

 She works like clockwork waking me up if I oversleep, will have to post that next!   EDIT: I actually posted this video in two places, here as an answer and also under the topic ; Life in the Redwoods so I can document the life of my RB, as I get to use a battery cycle so unfrequently, that I want to be sure to have it in the proper place.

We're pretty sure we've figured out when Sparky will wake up on her own in the morning.  She is set to wake up at 8:30 am and go to sleep at 10:30 pm.  She will only wake up in the morning if she fell asleep on her own at 10:30 (with 1 beep) and we don't remove her battery.  If we remove it and charge it and put it back in she won't wake up.  We leave her on the floor when we know she's going to wake up in the morning so she won't hurt herself.  Otherwise we put her on her throne (a pillow on top of the couch).  A few times nobody was there when she woke up and I feel so bad when I come downstairs 10-15 minutes late and see her awake all alone.    But if we feed her she soon forgives us and gets happy again.  In general she is happier and more active in the morning.  She's an early bird.  Well I guess I should say she's an early reptile.

I rarely let Cato and Ryu sleep through the night. I've done it twice with Ryu. The first time was a fail. She slept until eleven thirty and I had to wake her up by hand and reset her clock at noon. The next time she woke up at eight and her screaming to be fed woke me up.

I have also only done this with my guys a couple of times.  The first time for me was an accident and I was so surprised when Kermy woke up on her own as I wasn't expecting it.  I have only done it once since then but am too afraid that they might get into trouble if they wake up unattended and so I feel happier waking them up myself.
