Response to Looking for a timer!

from Nigel Smith (nlandgl@unite.com.au)
I came across my almost ideal development/fixer timer at an electronics store. It can be set so that it beeps, flashes a red led or both. I have it on 'flash only' mode as my son sleeps in the next room. Once the time is up and you press the 'ok' button, it resets back to whatever time you have in it. I do everything in multiples of that time, so pressing the button starts the timer, pressing it again stops it and resets and if I want more iterations it's just one more press of the button. One thing it doesn't do which another timer I use for timing prints in the wash does, is show you how much time it's been since the time was up, which would be nice but I don't find to much of a hinderance. The LCD display is a bit small (probably 10mm digits) but I never really look at it anyway, just wait for the LED to flash which means I'm not looking at a clock always waiting for that 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1...
