Snore Stopper

Snore Stopper
If you think your partner’s snores are getting unbearable, but you still don’t want to be rude enough to wake them up from their sleep, Snore Stopper ($60) is the answer.

It has a tiny, yet highly sensitive microphone that detects snoring & sends safe electronic pulses to the wrist. These pulses work similar to your spouse nudging you. They’ll cause you to alter your sleeping position & stop snoring. The pulses aren’t powerful enough to disrupt your sleep, but theyââ?¬â?¢ll make you roll over & the snoring will stop.
