Sonic Boom to wake you up from sleep
This post was published 2 years 10 months 8 days ago and its content may not be valid anymore.I believe that being woken up with something like the Sonic Boom alarm clock might actually do more harm than good. Does anyone else share the same belief? Wasn’t there a study that proved that your day would probably be better off when started with a soothing alarm clock rather than a 113 dB eardrum jarring alternative?
I mean, if waking up with a splitting headache sounds like your kind of morning, by all means, do check out the Sonic Boom Alarm Clock [via]. The beats will definitely rock your mornings – and not in the good way. The damn thing even comes with a 12V bed shaker just in case the car horn like blast has no effect on your deep sleep patterns.
I think I’ll pass on this one. I’m the type that prefers to wake up when I’m damn well ready to wake up.
It doesn’t matter what alarm clock I use, nothing will wake me up. My fire department pager will wake me up in a split second at 4am any day though.
What exactly does your fire alarm pager do?
Alerts him that people are dying, and he needs to get his ass up.
wake him up?
Smart asses all of you! Obviously curious to know why PVL’s fire department pager was more successful than his alarm clock.
@ Benji – Perfect way to put it.
@ Derek – Vibrates and beeps rapidly sounds kind of like this: http://www.monroefd.com/sounds/monroefdpager.wav and then some guy with a pleasing baritone voice tells me what I’m responding to.
I think it’s actually the sound that gets the adrenaline pumping which wakes me up.
I have to put my alarm clock on the other side of the room in a high place actually requiring me to get out of bed and reach for it to wake me up… sadly I often hit snooze and lay back down like 5 times and oversleep anyway…. I’m suuuuuuper at sleeping… and bad at being on time… so yea
I have a computer alarm clock that requires me to get out of bed and type a fairly long password that I know, but is hard to type when you’re half awake and the music is getting louder. Then I get on and hit snooze and do it again and again until I’m fringe late/late like Chad.
I’ve tried the whole alarm clock across the room trick. Unfortunately, I discovered that I continued to wake up late. Apparently, I get up, turn off the alarm clock, and return back to sleep.
