Hi All
I’m looking to make a small digital display counter.
All it has to do is display two 1 digit numbers and be able to add or subtract from those numbers in increments of one. Ideally it would have four buttons, two buttons for each digit (one button would increase the number and one button would decrease the number).
I’ve been thinking about using a cheap LCD watch for the display, because it is the size I want. I have taken the watch apart and the display, PCB, battery, plastic housing (the whole assembly) is the perfect size for this project.
What I want to know is there any way to modify the function of the watch. The watch has many functions but all I need it to do is add and subtract numbers on the display. I’m guessing there isn’t because the watch is not set up to do that.
I’m guessing I’ll have to use something else for this project. What I’m looking for in this project is: a two digit display counter that I can add or subtract numbers to each digit, and is about the size of a quarter in diameter and about ¼ inch thick.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
