how would you go about bypassing the speedstacks timer patents ? do you foresee any lawsuits in the near feature if this project is successful?

Well, I remember this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6WsOnkERyQ

Lin Chen's 7x7 WR, and the display looks like it was from a 3rd party.

Hey guys, just wanted to post an update about this project as we are getting very close to being able to release our first batch of product! Pictures will be coming shortly...
We will be setting up a paypal link on our webpage to purchase these shortly!
It is able to work with gen2 3 and pro timers (not tested with QJ or the other offbrand timers), it has a 1/4 - 20 nut in it enabling it to mount to standard tripods. It can be powered by a usb or 9 volt battery.
Each LED digit is a 1 inch LED, and displays 2 decimals of accuracy (even with timers that have 3, it truncates not rounds)
I'm excited to hear your feedback!

Sweet! Now you have to make sure it works with gen 4

Gen4 should have the same output as the gen3, as the gen4 demo timers are compatible with the same displays as before.

is it just me or do the 1 inch LEDs seem kinda small to me.

Here are some pics!

Where on the Picture in Post #27 are the current-limiting resistors?
I only see one resistor, a lot of Capacitors(C1...9), the ISP(CON1), the main µC(Atmega?), one mosfet (P1), the quartz(C7) with 22pF capacitors(CC1 and CC2) and the 5 7-Segment-Displays. The other IC is maybe a led driver (for segments), like the ULN2003.
But I can say more when I see the other side.
