Hi all! First post as have been lurking for a bit.
Theres not much in the way of electronic forums out there, and google isn't proving much help either!
I have a fairly simply project - a car speedo (porsche in this case) that i wish to convert to a clock, with the warning lights working for on my desk at work.
A battery powered clock mechanism is a no-brainer of course - but i'd really like a clock mechanism that can be wired up with a couple of white led's and powered from mains with a 12v supply.
Any guidance on parts ideas would be useful - the clock mechanism (one thats small enough and can be powered from 12v anyway) is proving the pain, once found i could piggy back power onto a board for leds from there.
thanks!
