Everything you need to build your own working 24 hour binary clock!

Touch the sensor for 2-5 seconds to synchronize the clock to the nearest minute (forwards and backwards in time). Touch the sensor for more than 5 seconds and the time will advance, first through the minutes, then through the hours.

A great kit for a great price! This would be a fantastic parent child project.

It is quite easy to integrate this into your own project. The LEDs can be wired from the board to your own housing for a custom 24-hour clock of your own design.

Think you can't build it? Think again! I have an instructable made with step-by-step pictures to guide you along the way!

Thanks for the kind feedback Karl!

Great for the classroom! Simple. Outside gathering some basic tools, no more than two hours work if you putz. Solder 72 pods and the job is done. It'd be fun to design the boards...

The PCP has a real nice quality, soldering it is very funny and easy. It is a nice gimmick, I realy like the idea, unfortunately my board flickers, which is probably my fault, and I will do some troubleshooting when I find the time and joy for such things. Would buy again, if there wasn't the shipping. (US to EU)

The binary clock is really cool. The soldering is relatively easy. My nine-year-old son did almost all by himself. We did run into trouble with some lifted traces but Steve of Apple Mountain was so amazingly helpful. After looking at some photos I sent him, he identified the issue and provided solutions. The clock now works like a charm. Thanks Steve!
