What is it about electric shock gadgets, we seem to be inundated with them of late. We’ve had shocking operation, the shocking knuckle dusters, the shocking jackets and shocking tanks (okay not so recent but very cool). Now we have the shocking alarm clock.

This alarm clock is just plain nasty, not only does it wake you up in the morning but to turn it off you’ve got to be shocked. For me this is either going to result in head under pillow or broken alarm clock at the bottom of the bed, it could be good in the guest room though for thise not so welcome guests *insert evil grin here*

The shocking alarm clock is available from dontdosocks for £12.95.
