Timer Experience button?

[jfh]

I want an Experience Button that can display the number of minutes left on a timer (or that acts as a timer itself).  Ideally, I would press the icon to start the timer from a preset number of minutes, the icon would update periodically with minutes remaining and return to Off state when expired.

 

Does such a driver exist?

Look for Countdown experience button

What device specifically are you timing? There are many new experience buttons with a timer built in that have matching icons for things such as fireplace, fountain, driveway heater, extract fan to name a few. If one does not exist you can edit the icon so it makes sense based on the device, if you have composer pro and some patience.

They really are cool... but still need one that counts down in days!

I want to use it to turn on music at bedtime and use it as a sleep timer.  I had been using a generic light switch Chowmain driver, but looks like this countdown driver will do exactly what I need (and, more importantly, what my wife wants).  

 

I had the driver installed this afternoon and set it up  to initially turn on the music for 2 hours and reset the countdown to 1 hour when tapped while music still playing.

Yup, and I can see a use for one that counts down in seconds as well.  But this is so much more flexible than using the Wakeup agent.
