Quality shock alarm clock2/22/2024 After a week of waking up to zaps, I would find myself waking up before the alarm goes off in fear I would get zapped. ![]() As you would expect, the alarm clock sprinkled in with a few electrocuting shocks really gets the job done at getting you out of bed. You can set the device to vibrate, beep, or by zapping you with an electric shock. One of my other favorite Pavlok features is surprisingly its alarm clock. Oh, and speaking of Pavlok’s app, it’s one of the most gorgeous apps I have ever used. Truthfully, I didn’t utilize any of these, but it’s good to know the support is there if you need it. On top of the wearable, the app is equipped with pre-built mini-courses to help you break some of the most common habits. This feature has so many possibilities especially for folks who have a bad habit of picking their noses. In my case, if I were to take a drag out of my e-cig, the bracelet vibrates, thus reminding me to zap myself just in case I forgot. The good thing is that there’s a really cool feature that I found buried in the app’s settings that makes the bracelet vibrate anytime it senses it’s near your face. Again, it’s all about how much effort you put into it. I’m sure if I stuck to it, it would indeed help break my habit. This effect made me less reliant on my e-cig. There would be times I would go to take a drag and would instantly remind me of getting shocked. The more you do it, the more cautious you are of your bad habit. So, anytime I would go to take a drag of my e-cig, I would push the button, sending an electric shock up my arm. Since the device doesn’t know when you’re actually smoking, it’s the user’s job to self-inflict an electric shock anytime they’re doing something they shouldn’t. It wasn’t drastic, but it was certainly noticeable. Just after a few weeks with Pavlok, the device did help me cut down on my nicotine intake. So, I figured this would be an excellent opportunity to put Pavlok through the ringer and see if it could help me quit my habit. I’ve now transferred that addiction to strictly nicotine, but now smoking out of a Juul e-cig. I picked up the habit when I was just 16 and continued on an ashy path up until about a 5-6 months ago, off and on. You just have to put some effort into it, like anything else. Whether it’s staying on time, being more productive, or waking up on time I think it’s safe to say this Pavlok bracelet works. But there’s really something about being electrocuted with a jolt of electricity to keep you on your toes. I got some time to spend with Pavlok, and from just a couple of weeks with it, it did keep me mindful of a particular habit I was trying to quit, which I’ll explain in detail a little further below. Other than getting zapped by any stranger and their mother on the internet, does it live up to the hype, does it really help you break bad habits? Instead, it’s meant to help you quit bad habits such as smoking, snacking, nail-biting, decreasing your sugar intake, boost your productivity, and a whole lot more. But it also has other useful features like an alarm clock and a sleep tracker. ![]() But ultimately, that’s not what Pavlok is intended for.
