What's a good (loud) alarm clock?

Question

I'm starting High School tomorrow, and my new alarm clock didn't wake me up at 5:20 like it was supposed to. Can anyone recommend a good alarm clock, with adjustable/loud volume? I'm a pretty deep sleeper.

Answer 1

Get a light timer, hook it up to a lamp and have that lamp positioned right on your eyes, wake up to that blaring down on you.

I use my cell phone as my alarm.  I set it on the "Siren" ring tone and turn it up all the way it goes (Which is pretty darn loud!).  You might try that? Otherwise any alarm clock with a radio set to a station you HATE and turn the volume way up.  

Answer 2

My son had a rooster when we lived in a country......I have a boat horn(one of the ones you hear at sports events) and I use that when my kids won't wake up to any of their THREE alarm clocks that they have in their room.

Ask your dad to get one. I'm confident that he will do so happily.  =)
