The fact that there is no explosive, or blocks of anything that might be mistaken for explosive, is a fairly big clue.
Wouldnt know, never seen any explosive. Basically its a crap clock. Well actually it was a clock before he took it apart and put it into that little case.
Bruneep that looks like a clock to me
Also most bombs are not mains powered.
Actually even my untrained eye spotted that which makes my point for me ref you attempt to compare the 10yr olds work to this errr.. Clock. They dont compare but at least try to find one that doesnt need a mains supply!

Well next time I make a bomb it will be mains powered - that will put them off the scent (it will also have a whacking great clock display on the side).

Wasn't my attempt - the 10 year made that point himself. I just mentioned it here because I thought it was a bit sad that it even crossed his mind.

That I agree with. All he has done is this:

Huh? [i]Both[/i] clocks needed a main supply. How would finding one that didn't make it a fairer comparison?
Note: battery powered clocks are available. Some are even small enough to wear on a wrist...

This thread has probably got us on enough watch lists already.
If I were you I'd be lubing up for when the black helicopter arrives. 😉

You posted the pic.

What?? If thats the case how did the alarm go off in his backpack?

That's unclear.
It's a mains powered clock with a 9v backup battery (to stop it losing the time in a power cut).
Some reports said he plugged it in during class, he set the time and the alarm went off.
Other reports said it went beep while in his backpack - in which case maybe the beep was an alert that the backup battery was running low or something? (there is no battery in the photos but I guess they may have removed it).

Given the evidence of 7/7, the Bangkok bomb, the Boston bombings and so on I'd have thought the clock actually looked a lot more like a bomb when it was in his rucksack. I bet there were loads of kids at school that day carrying fake bombs.

It all becomes clear - presumably the (removed) backup battery was one of these:

Loads of guessing then.

Yep - founded on loads of lazy, poor or inaccurate reporting.
