    I was wondering if there is a shot timer that vibrates for people like myself?
    To give you an understanding of what I need. I have this alarm clock.

    It as you can see puts out 113db, but I cannot hear it without my hearing aid (it has a bed shaker that wakes me up).
    My hearing aid puts 120db into my ear so I can hear normal speech, and that also includes me looking at a person's lips to help understand because my word perception through sound is 18% in the best one on one conditions (totally quiet conditions). So I have to read lips as well.

    Now my question. Is there a shot timer that vibrates instead of making a sound so I can train with time when no one is around. I ask because it isn't possible to have someone around all the time.

    Right now people time me by tapping my shoulder for me to start.
    Is there a better way for me to train with time when I'm by myself if there is no timer with a vibrate feature? Any other suggestions?

    Shotmaxx 2 has a feature where you start it and have 3 seconds to get to the ready position. After 3 seconds any sharp movement starts the timer. No reaction to the beep training, but you get your times. It's worn like a wrist watch. Out of stock, though.
