Well, you’d already be wearing a headband, so it wouldn’t be a big addition. But in my case, what with curtains and the direction my bedroom windows face, well, suffice it to say it’s about as cavelike as it could get. So, one’s milage may obviously vary. I’m not sure I could sleep with any kind of contraption attached to my forehead…

This sounds like a good idea to me, but not earth shatteringly so. I tend to wake up when light comes in the window, so absent a blindfold, which I think would be uncomfortable, I don't know how much good such a headband would be. If one had to get up before dawn this would be preferable to an alarum. Yes, I think it was FP. This sounds like a good idea to me, but not earth shatteringly so.

Futurepundit, maybe?

To wake up at a certain time: adjust the time you go to sleep. It works. Quit whining and kill your alarm clock.
