We bought one of those clocks as well and it's awesome. We have a total of three of them in the house now and two more in boxes to give as gifts or possibly use ourselves. They are very impressive for the $15 (Maybe $14.95) we paid for them.Squintz said:
Back on topic, though, my wife an I are both usually awake a good 10 minutes before the alarm clock goes off each morning at 5:04 (reference to the 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment which is a former unit of mine) and rarely have problems being awakened.
I have a wake-up routine for my 15-month old son, though. On non-holiday weekdays, HomeSeer slowly raises the light level of his room over a 30 minute period. We feel this helps his sleep cycle stay regulated and heps him wake more easily, since he has to be up by 5:30 in order for us to get him fed, dressed, and to daycare before we get to work. It works so well that he is usually awakw baby-talking to himself between 5:30 & 5:35 and will sleep until 6:30 or 7:00 on weekends and holidays when the "sunrise event" does not trigger.
E, since you do not want to wake your wife, have you considered aiming a spot light at YOUR pillow and having it slowly go from off to on over a 30-minute period? This would keep her from being disturbed, and you'd have the benefit of the gentle "sunrise" wakeup.
Is this the alarm clock you guys are talking about?

The reviews don't look that great.

E, that's not the one. The one Wal-Mart sells can't be found on line, becuase my wife and I looked on-line for one when all of our local stores were sold out.
I just Froogled for one again, and all I found were the same one you linked in your last post.
Wal-Mart.com does not have them either.
The one we have is short, wide, and deep - not like the one you linked to that is tall, wide, and thin.

This one is very close to the ones we have: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?sk...d=1110264091096 but the ones we have have several more buttons on top.. I went to emerson's website: http://www.emersonelectronics.ca/index/scr...cat_ID/177.html and I do not see the model we have there, perhaps they've been discontinued (figures they'd discontinue something that works well) or one of those things they make specifically for Wal-Mart and do not list on their site...
When I search for the model # in Google, I get some hits. Doing the same search on Amazon shows this clock:

Is that the one?

Well looks like I might just skip this idea, and try this:
