What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This is a vibrating disc that goes under your pillow or mattress and shakes to wake you up or alert you when a compatible Bellman & Symfon receiver triggers it. It's designed for people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or simply sleep too deeply to respond to auditory alarms. This is not a standalone alarm — it's an accessory that must be connected to a compatible Bellman & Symfon alerting receiver (sold separately), so you need that piece of the system already in place. It only works within the Bellman & Symfon ecosystem, so check compatibility with your existing receiver before buying.
