MGoBlue102 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I have been looking for a few weeks now for digital outdoor countdown timers that are themed or even changeable depending on the holiday, I want the numbers to be at least 6-8 inches so viewers from the street can see it good. Have not had much luck so far. I did find a decent plain digital countdown timer that would work but it is black and does not say what I am counting down, I thought if I could find someone artistic, I could possibly have someone create a face with cutouts for the numbers to insert over the front of the device but before I got that route, is there anyone reading that might direct me to pre-fabricated devices that countdown for the holidays to be part of my display. Halloween and Christmas primarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcktpwrd Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 sounds like the perfect thing to use a few P10 panels for... I have no first hand experience with them but have seen them in use for a multitude of things in displays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibblejr Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 James produced our Christmas countdown, however it is for a pixel tree and probably can easily be converted to a matrix. It is 25 different days, that seems to be the most difficult piece of the puzzle. Trying to make a sequence that can auto rollover for each day. The scenes are different for each day. If I recall its pretty close to 1 minute. JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry72 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I have plans to build a sign like this, and use a P10 or P5 panel inplace on the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
