Oh wow... Didn't expect this one but okay... I was planning on making some clocks to replace mine anyway although it would most likely not happen in near time...
Haha, good things happen unexpectedly! I originally didn't even plan on making a main channel video about it, but well here we are! I hope it's inspiring :)
Reason why you don't get very many watch hours from me is because I download all your video when I have good internet and watch them at my house in the woods.
Hey, cool! Don't worry about watch hours, eventually I'll get the hang of the whole yt thing and then watch hours solve themselves. Just good to know you're still there :)
Yeeess I LOVE it when old stuff is reused and upcycled that way! 😅 👍👍 We still have a couple of 10yo phones knockin' about, tho not sure I can get any apps to still run on those 😂 theoretically a fancy alarm clock could be made the same way...
@@ChronicMechatronic Android 4.4 seems to be the minimum for the IP Camera apps. They work really well 👍 I sideload the apk's from uSD cards or USB stick & adaptor thru the charge port. Good thing I've got apk backups of every app I've used since my first HTC Desire Android phone in 2010👍😂
@@edwardfletcher7790 yeeah ours were the HTC desire S as well I believe! 😂 Those were some indestructible phones... However they're stuck on Android 2.3.5 which is why I haven't yet found a better use for them ☹️ (but they're still in use as MP3 players & flashlights, hahaha)
Aww :( not even when you plug it in? I have two totally dead ones as well, thinking they might have been fried by overvoltage of a crappy power supply...
IF THE STUPID ALGORITHM DIDN'T FORCE ME TO DO BORING SHIT THERE WOULD BE MUCH MORE OF THIS KIND OF PROJECT!!!!

🛋 : I think a controller board can be purchased for the LCD. Or somehow connect them to the Arduino.
Yeah, with some of the more obscure ones in super cheap tablets like this one it might get difficult to find an appropriate one tho
I'll let you know when I find it. ))

Very cool project, but I did like the old-school loud one I think the bee makes it cool....
Yeah the old one was very nice - fun fact: the bee was never permanently attached, it's just stuck on with sellotape, haha
I liked the old one. Doesn't mean I don't like this one
@@ashers_workshop there's a PDF template for the old one in the description if you want to make it
Thats a Great Clock
Thanks it's still running BTW :)

You should refactor your Mom's clock by making round led display controlled by Arduino (or by ATMEGA microcontroller).
I'm using an old Android tablet as a security camera monitor for a 12yo phone running IP Webcam 👍
(I can see my cat is at the back door 😆)

@@ChronicMechatronic You Rock Dude, thanks for the lengthy explanation 👍😆
@@edwardfletcher7790 haha, I'm bad at getting things across effectively, sorry 😆
Neat
Yup
and my old tablet doesn't start at all ((

yes, his processor is broken
