Mensa Puzzle Alarm Clock Takes a Genius to Turn It Off

Having trouble waking up in the morning? Are you a genius? No? Then the Mensa Puzzle Alarm Clock is for you. Developed in conjunction with the British branch of the famed genius club, this alarm clock takes some early morning brainpower to turn off. When the Mensa Alarm goes off, you will need to memorize and repeat a random sequence of colored lights. Get it wrong and the alarm restarts- louder than before. Take too long and it restarts.

Now you might notice the “wimp out” button on the top right, which you can press but you’ll face 30 seconds of an extra loud alarm as payback. You can buy it from ebay for about $41 shipped to the US. It does not seem to be available in any US based stores.

Interesting Reading..
