If you are like most people,
the morning comes entirely too soon, and your alarm clock has taken
its fair share of abuse. You probably hit the snooze button at least
a couple of times before rolling out of bed knowing this will only
put you behind and will not really give you the rest you want. What
if you had an alarm clock that could not be ignored in the morning? could
you start your day not in a rush?
This list of alarm clocks
might be well worth your money or they might inspire you to come up
with a clock as equally if not more creative. They could also give
you an idea about what you absolutely cannot ignore in the morning
and will have you up and out of bed the moment it goes off.
Nixie Ramos
This alarm clock has also
been labeled the most diabolically evil alarm clock. The goal of the
Nixie Ramos
alarm clock is to get you out of bed immediately – no snooze
allowed. The only way to deactivate this alarm clock is to get up and
walk to the Defuse Panel that can be set up in a different part of
your home. Then you have to enter a code (the date) that will
wirelessly tell the clock to turn off. The alarm clock is also only
battery operated to keep you from unplugging it, and it is not
exactly cheap so damaging it might not be the wisest decision.
Phillip's Wake Up Light
Possibly much less annoying
than the Nixie unless light is more bothersome to you than sound, the
Phillip's
Wake Up Light uses a combination of light and sound that
gradually increase to slowly wake you up instead of jarring you out
of whatever dream you might have been having.
Clocky
This little guy will let you
hit the snooze button, but you may pay for it afterwards. After you
hit snooze, Clocky
rolls off the table or whatever you may have sat him on. Then he
finds a place to hide until it is time to go off again. This leaves
you with the only option of getting out of bed to look for him.
Sfera
The Sfera
alarm clock is another one that is effective but works more at your
own pace in the morning. The clock will hang above your bed and when
you hit snooze in the morning it will retract so you have to reach a
little further to hit snooze the next time. The goal is that
eventually you will have no choice but to get up to turn the alarm
off.
OKITE
Since many people now use
their mobile phone as an alarm clock it would not be fair to leave
out an alarm to help this group of people get up in the morning. The
OKITE app in particular is for iPhone users. The app is linked to the
users Twitter account and each time you hit snooze in the morning, be
prepared to have a humiliating or weird post go out to your
followers. So, this one may not be that effective for you if sleep is
more important than public image.
