Sonic Bomb Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker

I wonder how many people will buy this alarm clock.

Regularly late for work? Can't find an alarm to shake you from your slumber? It's time for the Sonic Bomb Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker.

The Sonic Bomb Clock has an adjustable volume alarm with a maximum loudness of 113 decibels (note that a jackhammer is about 100 decibels). And if that doesn't throw you out of the bed, the bed shaker will. Slip it under your mattress and your bed will shake in time to the alarm and shake you into the land of the living.

The clock also features two brightness settings, a snooze button, battery back-up and a choice of alarm setting - buzz, buzz/bed shake or bed shake only.

Available now, you can pick one up for $39.99 (just over £20).

I think I need something like that, I sleep like a bear.

 

[DuckRacer]

I need that.

 

[Silverzone]

That Is Awesome!

 

[Boz Mon]

We got my grandma one for Christmas. I havent herd anything about it as of yet though.

 

[TopHat]

Seriously? I hope you have a grandma of steel in that case.

 

[Slicks]

Must. Have.

I'm gonna go find a place where I can get it now...

 

[Loon]

Why would get one for your Grandma? Seems a little excessive for somebodys grandparent.

 

[Boz Mon]

It was a joke since shes kinda hard of hearing. Everyone makes fun of her selective hearing so my dad saw it on amazon and bought it.

I can guarantee you 95% of the folks who buy that will be from 14-24 and be using to scare the piss out of each other or see how deaf they can become.

I wonder what creative uses people will find for the vibrating bit



"Just keep hitting snooze"

 

[Philly]

Why a snooze button? I'm sure that thing works better than coffee in the morning. If your bed is vibrating below you and you have loud noises going on, I'm sure the last thing you want to do is sleep.

Other than that, it looks like a cool product. I would get one, if I actually used my alarm clock...

I can beat that (113 decibels), but it cost more to do so.

Well sure you can, just go buy a jet turbine and have it setup to off when you want it to.

I've got one of those old-school clocks with the two bells and little hammer on top. If someone can sleep through that, they've got a problem.

 

[Omnis]

The only problem with that is it would probably make you go deaf very soon.

An ideal alarm clock for me would be some kind of hydraulic bedframe

I have suitemates who’ve slept through the fire alarm before.

On the other hand, I use my computer to wake me up (it gradually fades in some jazz or classical music), but I’m such a light sleeper that sometimes just the sound of the computer waking itself up (it makes a little mechanical noise when checking the disk drive) will cause me to wake up.

Indeed. They produce one of the most annoying sounds EVER.

To be honest, this new clock would be a little over excessive for me...!

Needs more bacon smell alarm

 

[Casio]

It's strange for me, every time I set my alarm I always seem to wake up a couple of minutes before it goes off. I can't remember a time when the alarm sound itself has actually woken me.

Yeah, same with me. When the hour hand rolls over the alarm hand on the clock, it makes a little tick, maybe a second before the alarm starts ringing. Sometimes that wakes me.

I think I need something like that, I sleep like a bear.

I wish I could sleep like a bear between now and next week.

 

[Omnis]

Sometimes I wish I wasn't such a heavy sleeper. I'm pretty much dead to the world until I get my 8 hours. My mom says I wake up and talk to her and stuff in the mornings sometimes when she comes to see if I've yet to get up, but I have absolutely no recollection.

 

[Silverzone]

That clock is awesome, but come to think of it I really don't need it. I'm a light sleeper. But that would be something fun to have around.

 

[ExigeEvan]

I think a static shocker is next, perhaps a little finger thing, though it would make rolling over difficult.

It's strange for me, every time I set my alarm I always seem to wake up a couple of minutes before it goes off. I can't remember a time when the alarm sound itself has actually woken me.

[Cue Twilight Zone Music]

Yeah I'm like that, particularly if it's been a long school term and I'm stuck in the routine.

4 of them might just work for me.
