Can anyone recommend a vibrating travel alarm clock or wrist band. Hopefully something light weight. Thanks!

Thanks Mary Beth - I need this to wake me up without disturbing my travel partner. Do you know if it will do that?

Yes I have one and it just vibrates on my wrist and only wakes me up.

Perfect! My son has a Fitbit he is going to lend me, so all set - thanks again.

Another vote for a FitBit as an alarm clock.  Different FitBits have different strength vibration motors. 

I use the FitBit Versa 2.  It works great as my morning alarm clock and doesn't bother my wife.  They are up to the Versa 4 now but I don't see any feel for upgrading.  I still get about 4 or 4.5 days of charge out of it after about 4 years. 

Google is seemingly "de-featuring" aspects of the FitBit system after buying the company in favor of the Google Watch but that is not bothering me -  I don't use it for anything other than telling time and alarms. I've been pretty happy with this tech purchase!  The Apple Watch has great features and my wife uses hers as an alarm but the battery life is so much shorter.

Thanks Tim - not sure what version my son's is, but I'll double check vibration strength. Appreciate the info!

I actually have a lower end FitBit and it works great.  I’ve had it for years. I can set it to alert me to whichever notifications I wish from my iPhone and its silent alarm wakes me up easily without disturbing others.  Mine is a FitBit Inspire.

I have Fitbit Charge 5 and I cannot feel the vibrations at the highest setting:/

I read that FitBit may not vibrate strongly enough when paired with android phones.  I have FitBit Inspire and an iPhone and it works great.
