Thread: A New DILD Aid and Maybe a New Beast All Togther

Vibrating wristwatches would work better. Phones vibrate too much and I think would wake you up.

I thought about that too when I read that, I'm working on a tiny device that I'll strap to my ankle (I don't wear a watch.) I'm still figuring out a design for it, but I hope it will do that same thing that you are talking about without spending money on a watch.

That's about where I'm at right now with my phone it doesn't bother me too much but the vibration continues until you shut it off. If I can't shut it out maybe I'll go your route.

Just don't roll over onto your cell phone and crush it. Plus I'd rather use a watch.

Its pretty sturdy and I don't way that much

How much are these watches?

my fone is useful for this cuz if u turn the volume off and set an alarm, it will turn on a light but the light will go out after a while, so if i put it facing me during the night, all i hav to do is estimate wen im in REM correctly, then hopefully it will help with lucidity like the dream light thing.

Is your light bright enough? I just ask because I guess light is the ideal sense to use in your dreams because it is less likly to wake you up. What kind of phone do you have?

I'd be interested in hearing reports from anyone who tries this.

I did this the day I posted. I set my timer about every 30min and did a reality check each time it went of so I did a bunch more than I usually do. At night I went to bed at about 10:30 but I didn't have much luck. I don't think I slept very well because it was cold this morning and because of that I think I was easier to wake up than normal. My timer kept waking me up. There is still hope however I think if it does get me up it I could probably come a way with a deild. More to come

So you started the phone when you first went to sleep? Why not try a WBTB instead? Set it for 5-10 minutes from when you think you'll go unconscious. You'll probably have better luck. I might try this this weekend if I don't succeed at WILD tonight.

I got tons of confidence today tho. I just had my first LD after about 3-4 week dry spell! I am so hyped.

Hey thanks thats a good idea Your right It would be alot easier that way, not as much guess work.

I'm excited for you ending your dryspell

srry i didnt post in a while, iv been sik.
im pretty sure the light is bright enough and its a RAZER2? or kRAZER not sure...

The vibrating watch did exactly what I thought it would do. I felt it in the dream, caused me to do a reality check and I went lucid. It was also mild enough to not wake me up, I'm wearing on my ankle from now on.

Holly crap! I have to get one of those now.What kind of sleeper are you do you sleep really heavy or what and what is the brand of the watch that you used? My phone was nice for reminding me to do rc's but it kept on waking me up. On a side note I had a dream about buying a vibrating watch, this lady tried to sell me one for like $700 and it pissed me off because there was no way I was going to fork over that kind of money for a watch.

Well, lucky for you they aren't 700 dollars, you can get one at walmart of 35. I'm a light sleeper so it's gentle enough to not wake you up. The brand is Pathfinder.

Thanks I'll have to try it out.
