The Hanging Alarm Clock is yet another effort in the fight to get lazy bums out of bed in the morning.

We always think we can wake up and get stright out of bed in the morning but when push comes to shove we still try to hit the snooze button. Well if you don't stir after the first snooze the Hanging Alarm will climb 30cms further up and making the effort to press snooze again even greater. The idea being that you will eventually have to be out of bed just to switch the snooze on so you might aswell get up.

The Hanging Alarm Clock is easy to set and when activated plays the Close Encounters tune to give you a truly extraterrestrial awakening.

You might even go to bed earlier just so you can see the alarm work in the morning, or not.

• The clock is suspended from the ceiling by a cable
• Alarm sound is the Close Encounters theme tune
• Everytime the snooze button is pressed, the clock reels up the cable 30cm in one minute
• The clock is very light so can easily be suspended 'hung' from the ceiling or if you still sleep in bunk beds then the upper bunk.
