I use a vibrating alarm clock. It's a regular alarm with a wire going to a bed shaker (a 3/4" high disk with a vibrating mechanism inside - much like the ones in game controllers). The shaker is located between the mattress and box spring under my head.
Sometimes it startles me awake, which is an unpleasant feeling, but it works for me all the time. And, given that we have a foam mattress, the buzzing is absorbed enough for my wife to easily sleep through it.
- sizzle 13y agoNever heard of this product, can you link me please? It's what I've always wanted
- burntwater 13y agoThere are a number of such products, the most popular are probably from Sonic Alert - http://www.sonicalert.com/Alarm-Clocks-s/1819.htm http://www.sonicalert.com/Alarm-Clocks-s/1819.htm I recently discovered Bellman & Symfon, a Swedish company that has some very attractive (naturally) products. Their vibratating/flashing alarm clocks integrate with wireless smoke detectors. I can easily get a stand-alone strobed smoke detector in just my bedroom, but that doesn't help if the other end of the apartment is in flames. http://www.bellman.com/en/our-solutions/fire-safety-solutions/ http://www.bellman.com/en/our-solutions/fire-safety-solution...

- roberthahn 13y agoThis is the one that I have: http://www.headsetexperts.com/clarity_601_p/601.htm http://www.headsetexperts.com/clarity_601_p/601.htm I've had mine for years; I'm surprised they're still making it - I've gotten used to the 'cult of the new' lifestyle that seems so prevalent. :)
