Fire Alarm Bell Alarm Clock Will Wake You Up

by Scott Beale on January 14, 2008 · 6 comments

Have trouble waking up in the morning? Alan Parekh of Hacked Gadgets has a solution, make your own Fire Alarm Bell Alarm Clock.

Ever sleep-in because your alarm clock wasn’t loud enough? With this design that is guaranteed not to happen! This hack takes a standard cheap alarm clock, some interface components and a fire alarm bell to get the job done right. Normally these small alarm clocks use a piezo buzzer to attempt to wake you up. The alarm signal is hijacked from the clock circuit board and used as an input to the interface board.
