The boy brought his device a dismantled, 12-volt clock packed inside a school box to show off to his teachers. Bzzzzz. Wrong.
There was nothing "12-volt" about this "clock". It had a power cord designed to be plugged in to 120 volt house current and had a 9-volt batter backup. In fact, another story on FR details how this little puke admitted to plugging it in to an outlet to get the timer to activate and go off.

Gotta wonder what the potential electrocution hazard of that thing is while it's plugged up. Lots of exposed contacts with the case open.
