Bomb Alarm Clocks

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

You Disarm it to hit Snooze!

— June 8, 2008 — Unique
This silly clock is really quite functional, albeit annoying.

Unlike a traditional alarm clock, this one not only resembles a time bomb, but also shares some of the same attributes. When woken up by the sound of a simulated explosion, the poor user must figure out a secret number code in order to “disarm” the “explosion”.

The kicker is that the secret code is randomly reset every morning!

For $31, you too can be tortured by this novelty...every day.
