Get up and get those guns ready for the gun show with this Dumbbell Alarm Clock. The alarm clock won’t stop buzzing until you’ve done 30 reps. At 4 lbs., it may not be the heaviest of weights that you’ll lift but if you take it seriously, maybe you can give those biceps more meat. Punishing yourself first thing in the morning might not be someone’s idea of fun but for others, it may just be what their gym instructor ordered. $27.
You may have a slight case of death if all the gizmos from this alarm clock fail to wake you. First option is an audible alarm that can be varied to suit your hearing thresholds. The loudest setting is at 90 dB, which is like waking you up with a lawn mower. You can also set the alarm to broadcast the sound of your telephone ringing so if your boss gives you nightmares about getting a call, then it’s sure to wake you up. But if all else fails, the connected Bedshaker vibrates so violently that your fillings could get jarred. Oh, there’s also a super bright LED flashing light to combine with all three pains just to get you out of bed. Waking up has never been this violent. $85.
Ever had a dream where you were talking to an inanimate object, like a clock, and it talked back to you? Well it’s not a dream with this IVR Alarm Clock from Moshi. You can ask it the time and date, temperature, set the alarm and change the background noises all with just your voice. $50.
Mornings can be brutal especially if you had a rough night before. What you need is a little bit of humor, whichever side of the bed you may wake up in. If you’re a fan of TV’s longest running series, The Simpsons, then this alarm clock’s for you. It features Moe’s Tavern, Springfield’s favorite bar. Four of the town’s favorite characters hang around the bar and give you their funny quips to wake you up. Every morning, you can either hear Homer, Moe, Barney, or the Duffman dish out their lines and gear you up for the day ahead. ~$25.
This is one sure fire gadget to launch your lazy butt out of bed. The Rocket Launcher Alarm Clock features a NASA-style countdown before blasting a foam-tip rocket. Prevent the launch and the alarm clock will not annoy you with its constant beeps. But should the rocket lift off, it will guarantee to get you up – ringing endlessly unless you find the rocket and put it back into the launch pad. $25.
