Okay, let’s be real—this thing is basically a personal trainer for your sleep schedule. As someone who could sleep through a tornado (and has), the Pavlok Shock Clock 3 is my new lifeline. The shocks? Yeah, they’re intense, but in a 'I-needed-this-intervention' way. It’s like a tiny, wearable accountability partner.

The app is low-key genius. You can set it to force you to scan a QR code (mine’s taped to my coffee maker) or solve puzzles before the alarm stops. No more zombie-mode snooze slaps. Pro tip: Start at 50% shock level unless you enjoy feeling like you licked a battery.

Battery life slaps—5-7 days means I only charge it during my weekly existential crisis (Sunday nights). And it’s waterproof! Shower with it, cry in the rain with it, whatever. Just don’t try to swim laps; IP67 isn’t *that* forgiving.

Downsides? The beep could wake the dead… if the dead cared. Also, tiny-wrist gang beware—I’m on the second-to-last notch and it still feels like a friendly python hug. But hey, I haven’t been late to work since getting this purple menace. Worth every penny and zap.
