Often times, in living our daily lives we don’t consider that there are others around us who have may have limited capabilities. However, I’m sure people in those positions notice everyday that much of the world is not built to accommodate them. This includes those with physical disabilities, such as being wheelchair-bound, blind, or deaf. But have you ever wondered how someone with a disability is able to accommodate him or herself? For example, how do you think individuals with hearing impairments are able to wake up in the morning if they cannot hear an alarm clock? In searching for this answer, I found numerous resources available, including hearing impaired alarm clocks.
I originally discovered hearing impaired alarm clocks when various family members began to lose their hearing due to health complications and aging. It was then that I realized that the list of resources for this impairment is longer than I thought. In particular, there is a nice variety of hearing impaired alarm clocks out there to help people with hearing loss wake up with the same ease as those with no hearing difficulties. So to help you or a loved one become better informed on the options out there, I’ve gathered a handful of highly-rated clocks that can ensure anyone using them will wake up easily.
Shake Awake®
Shake Awake® is an alarm clock made in a vibrating style to shake your bed in the morning. It is unconventional in shape, looking more like a mini stopwatch, but they assure customers that the clock does its job despite its appearance. They suggest you put the clock under your mattress or pillow and sleep well because when it wakes up, you will too – no exceptions. It also has the typical features like snooze and an LCD display once you actually put your hands on it to shut it off.
Sonic Bomb Alarm Clock
This is one of the most highly-rated hearing impaired alarm clocks on the market right now. This neat stealth gray and red clock is extra loud for those who do have some hearing capabilities. It also comes equipped with “pulsating flash alert lights” that make sure that your senses pick up on the clock. But if all of that doesn’t work, like Shake Awake®, the Sonic Bomb has a built-in 12-volt bed shaker to snap you out of your sleeping state. They guarantee you won’t be able to sleep through this alarm clock – and if somehow you do, you might be in trouble.
Vibra Light 2
Now if you want to wake up in the morning without disturbing your significant other sleeping in your bed, the bed shaker vibrator models may not be the best choice. Instead there is the Vibra Light 2, a vibrating watch. This watch shakes your arm persistently until you wake up and turn it off, also having a setting to flash a bright light by tilting your wrist. It seems like a good bet for those wanting an undisturbed partner but still needing to wake up. In addition, some extra perks are that the watch has a high quality leather band and is water resistant – not bad!
With this unique array of hearing impaired alarm clocks, you or your loved one is afforded the opportunity to have a great jump start to the morning. And while they are meant for the hearing impaired, they are even nice for heavy sleepers. No matter what the reason would be for purchasing a clock, it is always important to go out and test some yourself to make sure you will find one that is a perfect fit for you. So do your homework first, then get out there and get your hearing impaired alarm clock. Good luck!

Sonic Boom Sweet Heart / Love Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker (SBH400SS) $44.68 A date. You have a date. At 3am, your time, you are going to be meeting the hottest virtual elf you could ever imagine at the tavern near the river down by the flatulent dwarf’s armor shop. But you need at least get a little sleep beforehand or you won’t be able to work the next day, which means you won’t be able to pay the bills, which means no more high speed connection. All you have to do is set your Sonic Boom Love Clock’s alarm and plug in the bed shaker. You’ll be up in time, trust us. How can we be so sure? One word: volume! The Sonic Boom Love Clock has an adjustable volume alarm with a maximum loudness of 113 decibels (just for reference, a jackhammer is about 100 decibels!) Add the bed shaker attachment does just what you think it would. Slip it under your mattress and your ears will bleed and your bed will shake, and there is no way you will oversleep and miss your date. And…if you ever get a real date (or just need a massage) you can turn off the audible alarm and just let the bed shaker do its thing. The Love Clock is also a great secondary alarm clock. Like Commissioner Gordon had a special phone to call Batman, this could be the clock to remind you when it’s time for love! |

Sonic Boom Loud Digital Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker The Bomb (SBB500SS) $39.68 Even Ninjas need their sleep. For a Ninja, sleep is a time of renewal, contemplation, and rejuvenation. And when a Ninja sleeps, it is a very deep sleep. Most sleeping Ninjas can only be roused from slumber by another Ninja, which is a big problem if you are a Ninja, are tired, must wake up for a secret Ninja mission, and the only Ninja in your office. Good thing we found the Sonic Bomb Clock – it will wake even the soundest Ninja Nap. The Sonic Bomb Clock has an adjustable volume alarm with a maximum loudness of 113 decibels (just for reference, a jackhammer is about 100 decibels!) And the bed shaker does just that. Slip it under your mattress and your ears will bleed and your bed will shake, and there is no way you will oversleep. Or, you could turn the sound alarm off and tape the bed shaker to your office chair. You’ll be vibrated awake without disturbing the drones. Then you can get back to your Ninja activity refreshed and ready for action. |

Self Portrait: Between Clock and Bed – Classic 20 X 24 – Hand Painted Canvas Art $53 20 X 24 Oil Painting On Canvas Hand painted oil reproduction of the Munch masterpiece, Self Portrait: Between Clock and Bed. The original painting was created in 1940-42. Today it has been carefully recreated detail-by-detail, color-by-color to near perfection. Norwegian by birth, Edvard Munch was one of the more gifted painters of our time. As a painter, Munch played a major role in the development of German Expressionism. Throughout his career, Munch’s paintings and print work covered dark themes such as sickness, misery and death. His masterpiece, The Scream , remains one of the most well-known icons of existential torment. This work of art has the same emotions and beauty as the original. Why not grace your home with this reproduced masterpiece? It is sure to bring many admirers! |
