Oled Alarm Clock

“There’s a lot of arduino/ESP32 clocks going around, but do they use those nice and crisp OLEDs? I’ve been experimenting with arduinos and ESP32’s for a while now, but I never made it to a finished …

Retirement Clock / Count Up/Dn Clock

“I had a few of these 8x8 LED dot-matrix displays in the drawer and was thinking about what to do with them. Inspired by other instructables, I got the idea to build a count down/up display to count down …

Time Measure (Tape Measure Clock)

“For this project, we (Alex Fiel & Anna Lynton) took an everyday measuring tool and turned it into a clock! The original plan was to motorized an existing tape measure. In making that, we decided it’d be easier to create …

Logging 2 Electricity Smart Meters Using Arduino Nano Every

“This project describes how to log electricity consumption of 2 different consumer circuits by reading the corresponding 2 smart meters (“eHz”=”elektronische Haushaltszähler”) simultaneously to an SD card. It all started wanting to get a better understanding of electricity consumption …

8x8 Led Matrix Clock & Anti-Intrusion Warning

“In this Instructable we’ll see how to build a 8x8 Led Matrix Clock activated by motion detection. This clock can be used also as anti-intrusion device that send a warning message if a motion is detected to a telegram …

Arduino Based Watch - OLED, Menu, RTC

“Have you ever wanted a device which is too large for a watch but yet too small for a clock? Well, it is, but it can easily be made into a watch, and also easily be made into a clock …

Mechanical Seven Segment Display Clock

“A couple of months ago I built a two digit mechanical 7 segment display which I turned into a countdown timer. It came out quite well and a number of people suggested doubling up on the display to make a …

Mesmerizing Ferrofluid-Display: Silently Controlled by Electromagnets

“Disclaimer: This Instructable will not provide a straight forward way to build a big ferrofluid-display like our “Fetch”. That project is so big and expensive that anyone who want to build something similar will almost certainly have different design requirements …

S7ripClock - Basic Edition

“Another redesign (stopped counting them) of something I did before. So welcome to the latest iteration of “S7ripClock”, a modular 7 segment clock built using led strips. The modules (2 digits) only use a single piece of led strip and …

Lazy Grid Clock V2

“Lazy Grid Clock v2 Welcome to LGCv2, a 7x11 led matrix using a single LED strip. The idea behind this thing was to avoid soldering multiple led strips like in a classic matrix. For this to work there’s 6 …
