Firebox Designer Binary Clock

James Allan Brady, Oct 30th 2007 Discuss [3]

Well you see, it’s a clock, and the time, its displayed in binary with lights. There is a row for each hours, minutes, and seconds. The columns are in binary starting at the left with 32 and then decreasing by half all the way down to 1. I have no clue what the top most row is for, as the bottom three are the rows that actually tell time. Read The Full Story

Boynq WakeUp iPod clock radio

James Allan Brady, Oct 26th 2007 Discuss [0]

It looks weird, but in a good way, like it could transform into iPodimus Prime at any point. Anyways, the thing perched on its edge are the speaker portions of the device, the front section is the clock and the media selector/controller. A grand total of 20 watts of output isn’t bad for a clock radio, my Altec Lansing 2.1 system only puts out 12 watts, and I wouldn’t have traded it for a thing, until one of the satellites blew. So there are four quarters if you will to the front of this device, the top right is the iPod dock, top left is the media selector/controller and the bottom two is the clock. Read The Full Story

Sonic Bomb Alarm Clock will make you go deaf

James Allan Brady, Oct 14th 2007 Discuss [2]

You get roughly a minute and a half before you start losing some of your hearing, but at 113 decibels, if you don’t wake up before a minute and a half, you must be deaf already or dead. You can set the volume, but it maxes out at 113 decibels. There is also a thing to vibrate the bed, I would assume you’d place the item beneath the mattress. Hopefully, for your neighbors sake, you can use that combination and wake up with a lower volume setting than 113 decibels. Read The Full Story

ChillyChilly Seeing Double wall clock with secret time decoders

James Allan Brady, Oct 11th 2007 Discuss [0]

Remember when you were a kid and you got those little spy kits that had the 3D writing thing where it supposedly hid the message, even though you could read it as long as you didn’t try and focus the two? Same concept, but with a clock. The Seeing Double clock from ChillyChilly has the hours and the minutes transposed over each other in red and green. The hour and minute hands have different color filters on them, the hour hand is red, the minute hand is green, so when the minute hand is over one of the 12 locations, only the red shows through and its whatever minute marker that is, 5, 10, 15, 20, you get the idea.

Combining gadgets always offers a bit more simplicity. Its even better when they make some sneaky statement, such as the Time is Money Clock. Read The Full Story

Projection Clock has old-school clock face

James Allan Brady, Oct 3rd 2007 Discuss [0]

When I first saw this thing I thought it was a dual purpose alarm clock and coffee maker, but its not, just the projection clock. You can dim the light behind it, or change the focus if you want. Me, myself, and I, as I sit here writing this, am thinking about ways to mod it to make it better, such as changing the clock face, applying a light filter for different colors of like, things like that. That would make it cool, or if it was weather proof and you could project it outside, just screw people up by setting it to the wrong time. Read The Full Story

Darth Vader alarm clock projects time, uses the Force to awaken you

James Allan Brady, Sep 19th 2007 Discuss [0]

This Vader alarm clock has a frickin laser to display the time on your wall, ceiling, face, wherever you aim it pretty much. It will also display the Vader name. There is a Vader figurine on the left of the alarm clock, and a red hemisphere on the right. The hemisphere acts as a night light as well as a snooze button of enormous proportions.

Mod – Hard drive clock

Chris Scott Barr, Sep 17th 2007 Discuss [0]

We see a lot of strange and geeky clocks around here. Most of them are just silly or cheesy. Ones that use PC parts generally just use them as a face with the regular clock mechanism ticking around it. Well this clock hack is certainly one of the most original, as it uses the platter and needle from the hard drive to tell you the time. Read The Full Story
