Damn, that sounds like something that would really help me out
I use blackout curtains like you too (used to do 3rd shift). Let me know how it works out if you try it. Could be just a me thing, but I hope it works for others too.
It also helps that they can do variable color temps. Cool blue (day light) vs warm yellow (candlelight) has a massive impact on energizing me too.
Can confirm, I usually use the app that also comes with automation so that at the time the alarm goes off the light slowly turns on then after a set time it turns off, it's great to give me a perception of time and know when I should've already left the room.
I had to buy multiple to put on opposite sides of the room because I would just turn over and ignore it when I just had the one.
