Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend — this $100 sleep gadget made me actually want to get out of bed in the morning

$100 to never oversleep again? It's worth it, trust me.

Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend — this $100 sleep gadget made me actually want to get out of bed in the morning

On November 1, the clocks in the U.S. will go back an hour, which means people will gain an extra hour of sleep. This can be a welcome change, but it's not always easy for everyone to adjust. Recently, the reviewer tried the Lumie Bodyclock Spark 100, a sunrise alarm clock that simulates a natural sunrise to help wake people up.

The reviewer used the device for over three weeks, including the weekend the clocks changed, and found it easy to adjust to the time change. The Bodyclock Spark 100 uses a 30-minute simulated sunrise to gently wake users in the morning, making them feel more refreshed and ready to start the day. The reviewer noticed they no longer felt groggy or confused when waking up with their phone alarm and found it easier to get out of bed without falling back asleep.

The compact and unobtrusive design of the clock made it easy to place on the nightstand. The alarm was easy to set up and didn't require charging since it plugs into an outlet. The reviewer liked that the device offers minimal features, as they prefer to use their phone less and keep their sleep data private. However, the reviewer did find the alarm beep to be somewhat loud and out of tune, which could be a drawback for some users.

Despite this, the Bodyclock Spark 100 is a fairly affordable option at $109, especially if purchased on sale.
