I shared a room with my two sisters when we were growing up, so it’s a given that we spent a lot of time together – either getting along or fighting. And one thing that always made us fight were alarm clocks.…

Let’s merge the alarm clock and a Roomba so we can have one less gadget to clutter the home. That’s Seoul-based designer Jeongmi Lee’s thinking here. He designed a domestic robot that yanks your blanket off the bed in the morning to wake you.…

I’ve found my favorite alarm clock! Created by software engineer/hardware designer/part-time MacGyver Michael Krumpus, the defusable clock works just like the bombs in movies. You can stop it’s alarm within 10 seconds… if you cut the right wire. Quick, Pete! Hand me that swiss knife, WordPress and a picture of…

We feature quirky alarm clocks on almost a weekly basis. On the other hand, the creators of the Sonic Bomb alarm clock didn’t bother to think of unique ways of waking people up. They just went with pure power. The maximum loudness of this alarm clock is 113dB – that’s…

I was raised by pretty conservative parents, and sometimes, I think that their paranoia has rubbed off on me. For example, whenever I go out of town and stay the night in some hotel, I always go to great pains to ensure that all the double locks are in place…

Real life MacGyver Kipkay is back with another fun and useful hack. Like most of his creations, the best thing about the Tripwire Bang Alarm is that it’s made out of commonly found and cheap materials, like a mouse trap, some fishing line and tent poles. You’ll still have to…

We’ve featured a clock that won’t shut off its alarm until you deposit some money into it. This concept on the other hand, is the unholy opposite – once the alarm kicks in, it will start shredding money and will obviously keep going until you turn the alarm off. The…
