fudd 0 #1 December 16, 2003 No alarmclock seems to ever wake me up in the morning. I turn it on snooze without ever beeing conscious. What I need is an alarm clock with the Pro-dytter alarms! There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vt1977 0 #4 December 16, 2003 I set 3 alarms too, approx 5 minutes apart with the last one being at the other end of the room so I have to get my butt out of bed to switch it off. I hate mornings! Vicki Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick 0 #6 December 16, 2003 Would be good if somebody could make an alarm clock as loud as a protrack, if it made the same sound i'm sure i'd wake up in some strange positions!!!! Nick Gravity- It's not just a good idea, it's the LAW! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites MikeJD 0 #18 December 16, 2003 Fudd, Bit of a different angle, but I recently got a Bodyclock from Lumie (www.lumie.com). It has a lamp that gradually brightens, reaching full luminescence at the time you're due to wake up. It also has a backup beeper just in case you don't. I was sceptical at first, but it really works! After a few days I didn't need the beeper any more, and it's a much nicer way of being woken than having a shrill alarm going off in the pitch dark. Might be just the thing if your brain is protesting about the dark winter mornings. And if you don't mind your bed-sharer thinking you've gone all new age...
