Digital clock displays
« on: January 24, 2018, 11:59:47 AM »
Anyone know of a source for digital clock displays?  Plenty of analogues out there but I'm after digital, preferably led.

Chris, the electronics behind creating an LED Clock from scratch is not complex, but not worth the effort. It is far easier to buy a small clock and remove the casing.

Maplin do a reasonable range https://www.maplin.co.uk/c/household-diy/clocks-watches/digital-clocks.

But if you do want to have a go yourself,  try this website

or maybe using a Nixi Tube set-up,
