VibraLITE Mini review

The VibraLITE Mini is a different kind of vibrating alarm: a digital watch rather than a clock. Circa Tempus, the official distributor, lists 12 daily alarms that can vibrate, beep or both, a repeating countdown timer, a lock-out mode and an electroluminescent backlight. It weighs 0.9 oz, is water resistant to 5 ATM and runs on a CR1632 coin cell. For a deaf or hard of hearing person, the watch has two strengths. It wakes only the wearer, and it goes everywhere, so the same device handles a hotel stay, a nap on a train or a medication reminder at work. The limits are just as clear. Each alarm runs for 20 seconds, which is short for a very deep sleeper, and the FAQ says vibration is what drains the battery. Prices on the store ran from $54.95 for the VM-LPL model to $79.95 when checked.
