What parts would be needed for timer with light panel indicator

[mrhutchinsonmn]

I think what I would like is a Light Panel that would be about 7 or 8 cm square. I'm not sure if I would get the clean look that I want with the LEDs you mentioned but maybe you could point me in the right direction so I could consider those also.

@mrhutchinsonmn just put any thin sheet of white plastic on top of a led

@mfalkvidd I have one of these sitting around for another project you posted that I will be making soon (Parking Sensor). This should work with a lens over it: https://tinyurl.com/y6p7e3p9, correct?

@mrhutchinsonmn I would probably use a diffuser instead of lens but yes that would work very well

Here is my first prototype of a working solution for a timing light: ( neopixal timing light):https://youtu.be/b3TDGKUS05I

Thank you for direction @mfalkvidd !

Great video @mrhutchinsonmn, thanks for sharing!

I really like the real-world use case.

For the wireless part, you might be able to reuse parts of my code for a pomodoro timer. https://youtu.be/sLEbq_pfry0

My code does not support remote control (it only views status remotely) but it would be easy to add en endpoint, for example

server.on(”/start”, start_pomodoro)

to start the timer. Code: https://github.com/mfalkvidd/Arduino-Datormagazin-Pomodoro/blob/datormagazin/Arduino-Datormagazin-Pomodoro.ino

I like that! before your reply, I found something else that would work. I like it because a nano could power the neopxial and rf receiver, reducing complexity

This is what it looks like with a diffuser
