We've got this cheap egg cooker that plays the loudest, most terrifying alarm you've ever heard when it's done cooking. My wife requested that I make it "less aggressive" so I hacked it into the most gentle egg cooker of ALL TIME

(warning: probably loud)

@gvy_dvpont ... Why did they design it the original way? Who thought that was a good idea?!

I'm going to guess that the alarm was motivated by someone who always forgot that they had eggs cooking and wound up coming back from the yard/basement/garage to find the eggpocalypse.

@arniepix @Craigp @gvy_dvpont As someone who owns one of these devices, and who is married to someone who had previously forgotten about eggs being boiled in the traditional way on the stove, I can confirm that the alarm is appreciated by some. 🤣

This is why I bought my wife a whistling teapot.
