ILoveC4 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 That is a VERY cool clock. Very cool in deedI have a few cool clocks around the house, but nothing like this. I can check brands when I get home.I stumbled upon this in a (very expensive!) trip to Fashion Square Mall in Scottsdale, AZI emailed them and told them to make a similar wall clock that was battery powered...they never responded.Watches are a big weakness of mine...if I go home talking about a cool clock my wife just might kill me.

CFUG Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Alright, so I came to my senses about spending $1300 something for the SS version. Instead, I just installed the XBMC version of QlockTwo Ok, not really the same but such is life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urbanmark Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 There's now the smaller QLOCKTWO Touch alarm clock for about half the price: http://www.lumens.com/QLOCKTWO-TOUCH-Table-Alarm-Clock-by-Biegert-and-Funk/uu390059/ProductOr the DIY inspired version of the original available here:http://www.dougswordclock.com/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groomden Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 Saw the smaller version, no good, we need a wall clock.The cheap version doesn't look nearly as sweet. Plus you can buy the arduino kit for like $80 bucks I think. That guy is just buying the arduino word clock and putting it together for you.

CFUG Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 ^Well, broke down and bought the red one for wifey (read me) for VDay. I'll just tell her it was $75 on Craigslist if she asks. Yeah, $75/mo for a year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groomden Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 anyone know if there is a wall clock out there that uses the technology in marathon finish line clocks? it like a yellow material of some sort, very sharp numbers...like this(towards bottom): http://www.marathonguide.com/news/exclusives/LondonMarathon_2008/LondonMarathon2008PostRaceMen.cfmthat would make an excellent wall clock in a smaller size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
