Hi all!
So I sleep in same room as my parents, and they got tired of waking me up for college (7am).
Please help me find a way to wake up by myself.
I am hearing impaired (not completely deaf) so sound alarms are out of question. They would need to be so loud that not only I would wake up my parents, but also neighbors on left, right and below us (2 story apartment).
Light is a good idea, I rigged up a device before that turned on couple kilowatts worth of light and a ceiling fan, woke me up well :thumbsup:
Unfortunately, that would wake up parents in the same room, so it won't work.
I have a little timer that can give 110w of power from wall socket at a specific time interval (7:00-7:15 for example). It's not very precise but it's the only thing I got.
Any ideas how to rig up an alarm? I guess it has to do with vibration.
I could try to tie a cell phone on my leg and maybe have some web service call me at 7am, and vibration on cell might wake me up. Problem is a) I don't like having stuff tied to me and b) I do not know of service that would call me at a specific time.
Maybe it would be something powerful to shake my entire bed using 110w from wall socket? But what? Please help!
UPDATE1: Jan 26
I set my cell phone to use audible alarm at 7:15 am.
That web site should call me 7:00 am (vibe).
I have to wake up only 4 times a week, mon-thursday, so I didn't get to test the web site/sound alarm yet (at 7:15 cell phone sound alarm is okay since by then everybody in the room should be up.)
My slightly younger brother sleeps in other bedroom. It is smaller than mine & my parent's bedroom, we decided to give him his own room because everybody got tired libing with him: he lives like a pig. Unwashed dishes, trash, clothes, etc - room is a complete mess. I used to live in same room as him before and said fuck it I'd rather live with parents.
Buttkicker??! ZOMG I GOTTA CHECK THAT OUT!!!
Deflating mattress? Pretty cool but != cheap.
