Water Pistol Alarm Clock

In the heat of the summer better call out a plumber,
turn on the steam pipe cool me off…

- Taken from the classic Circle Jerks’ song, “Wild in the Streets” (now, how many other clock blogs out there quote the Circle Jerks?!).

Hey, it IS the peak of the summer and you might need something to help you cool you off AND wake you up again after those long, hot, party nights.

In that case, we have just the thing for you: it’s a Water Pistol Alarm Clock.

The Water Pistol Alarm Clock is a great solution for those of you who are too hot and too tired to wake up. It kind of solves both problems with one easy solution. When the alarm on this clock goes off, it also squirts water from a water pistol. The water stream can be directed at you, your dog or even out the window at the neighbor next door.

But getting one of these unusual alarm clocks is not that easy, because the Water Pistol Alarm Clock cannot simply be purchased in stores. You have to construct it yourself with a few simple tools and a few basic pieces of equipment.

Please watch the Howcast Video below to find out how to construct a Water Pistol Alarm Clock, step by step:

What you need to get started on this project is a battery powered alarm clock and a motorized water gun.

And then, using just a few common tools you probably have laying around the house anyway, you simply need to follow the instructions in the video above.

Get yourself a motorized water pistol like the one shown here.

Then get yourself an old fashioned battery-powered alarm clock like this one.

Then you need a bunch of wire, a wire stripper, a voltage relay switch and a circuit board. In order to connect everything together a soldering iron is highly recommended.

Just follow the instructions in the video and you’re ready to rock – you’ve got yourself one neat water-squirting alarm clock!

Once you’ve finished building your own Water Pistol Alarm Clock, you’ll automatically wake up each morning with a clean face – there’s no longer any need to reach for your wash cloth. For those of you who are practicing alcoholics: try filling the water pistol with Vodka. In this manner, you can also wake up to breakfast!

Isn’t technology cool? What will they think of a next – alarm clocks you use in your web browser perhaps?!

Nahh, technology that far advanced must still be light years away.
