FAQ

Q: What are the features of the Sonic Alert SB1000SS Boom Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker?
A: The Sonic Alert SB1000SS Boom Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker has an extra-loud 113 dB alarm with adjustable tone and volume control. It also has a built-in receiver for other Sonic Alert signalers, a SS12VW Super Shaker bed vibrating unit, and a 120V lamp connection input. Users can select the alarm and snooze duration. The clock has a digital display, requires one 9V battery (not included), and comes with a power cord and bed shaker. It weighs 1 pound and measures 8.8"W x 4.9"H.

Q: Does the clock come with a bed shaker or is it sold separately?
A: The clock comes with a SS12VW Super Shaker bed vibrating unit.

Q: Can the clock turn on the light without flashing?
A: No, the light only works in flash setting when plugged into the alarm clock. The lamp flashes in time with the bed shaker's pulsations. However, users can turn on the lamp whenever they want by clicking the large yellow button.

Q: Can users shut off the audible alarm and leave the shaker on?
A: Yes, users can choose to use either alarm or the shaker.

Q: Does the receiver still vibrate even if the outlet is turned off or alarm is off?
A: If the alarm is turned off, users essentially have a clock. Until they turn on the alarm with a lamp plugged into the unit, they will get a blinking lamp, vibration steady or pulsing, and an alarm.

Q: How do users set two different alarms on this clock?
A: Users cannot set two different times on this clock. They can only set one time like a normal alarm clock does.

Q: Can this clock wake users up in case of a fire?
A: No, this clock does not have the capability of waking users up in case of a fire. Sonic Alert's new device, Home Aware, may be a better option for that purpose.

Q: Can users set the clock to only flash the light and vibrate without sound?
A: Yes, users can turn off the volume on the clock by using the knob on the upper left-hand side. They can also set the outlet switch to lamp only, vibrate only, or both. The clock will then only flash the light and vibrate without sound.

Q: What is the warranty for this product?
A: The Sonic Alert SB1000SS Boom Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker comes with a 5-year parts and labor warranty.

Q: What do customers say about this product?
