And apparently it really works too, although the advertised "time to awaken" period seems a bit too long for my taste.
Effective over an area of 50 feet, the Wasabi alarm can typically wake people up within two-and-a-half minutes. Correct me if I'm wrong, but most traditional fire alarms (http://gizmodo.com/tag/firealarms/) are loud, and wake you the eff up, well, instantly, right?
Nevertheless, someone believes in this thing. Two years ago this alarm was but a concept. Now it's a $560 (?!?!) reality. [CNET (http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-10443919-1.html) via Technabob (http://technabob.com/blog/2010/01/31/wasabi-fire-alarm/)]
