Safety Alarm Clock

Step 2Open up your alarm clock

Open up your alarm clock
Before you open the sucker up, find out the specifics to control the alarm. For instance on my clock the alarm would not go off when the snooze was depressed, would be reset by the alarm set button etc... Try to figure out a way to the control the alarm on and off with a only a single switch.

WARNING : This may be a mains operated device, make sure you unplug it from the wall before even looking at a screwdriver!!! To be extra safe, leave it overnight uplugged to let capacitors discharge etc...

Looking inside it should be a tangled mess of wires, circuit boards and other such electrical jetsam. Don't be scared because most of that stuff is not important.

Now you need to find access points to the various buttons and switches that control you alarm. You want to try and figure a way of using one and only one switch to turn the alarm on or off.
