(By the way, there should be a product review section....)
Anyways, i would like to review the screaming meanie alarm clock.
i decided that with my new schedule, i needed a good decent dependable alarm clock. The problem was with my wristwatch or cellphone alarms, i often wouldn't hear them; i wear earplugs.
So, i needed something louder. i had been reading ads for the screaming meanie in the back of truck magazine for years and decided to give it a try. i got it at petro for, i think $39 but don't remember, you could look it up.
There are three settings----normal which is about the same as a cellphone or wristwatch alarm. Medium which is pretty loud maybe the same as a smoke detector. And high, which is fricking loud! i think medium will work for most people and don't recommend high because it could give you a heart attack.
The other thing is that it gives you 2 pre-alarms, 10 and 5 mins before the actual alarm setting. There's no way to disarm these So, if you wanted to wake up at 7:00 am, you would actually have to set the alarm for 7:10 am. This kind of gives you two automatic snoozes. i kind of wish they did not put this unarmable feature in here, but other than that the alarm works.
Also, it's made in china so i don't expect it to last longer than a year, but other than that it does it's job of waking you up good.

They've got some cool alarms for those hard to wake up people. Not good for a truck but I like the ones that have wheels and take off. They jump off the table and you have to catch it to shut it off.
Some have a few questions you have to answer like simple math problems in order for them to shut up.
