use your cell phone,make sure and put it on air plain mode tho. most cell phones can record noise,this way you can record and use a "natural noise" such as a bugle or cow mew for an alarm instead of a human made noise.

I have an old pre-paid cell phone that I cancelled when I moved.  I keep it charged just for this when I go out.  My rommie also found me an alarm clock that runs on 1 AA that is only 2x2x.75  pretty damn loud too.

I use the alarm on the rhino. Set it so I turn it off and it turns on when the alarm goes off.

I use my watch, but I like the idea of using a phone with an animal sound....just don't use a cougar scream.   :bdid: You might make a mess in the sleeping bag.

I was using just a beeper type one years ago in coastal OR and had a bull bugle back at my alarm, several times...   :chuckle:  Be sure if you use your cell and are out of range, to set it on airplane mode as mentioned or it will wipe the battery out looking for a signal.

Drink a bunch of water before bed, then set the alarm on your watch.  One of them is certain to wake you up.
