Heya guys, just courious to to know if anyone knows where i can buy a small digital hour meter from, it will be for a project of mine to measure how long the lamp in my projector has been running for. I will need somthing that can hold its memory when power is off, and it must add the hrs up.

Any other thoughts or ideas are much apreciated.

I found one there that would do the trick🙂 , but, how does it sense anything to start timing? is this done by the power being turned on? if so im right then lol.

Yes, when power is applied, it starts counting.

The big deal about Lascar is the reasonable price level, Ive used them for robotics as service interval meters. They are very reliable and easy to deal with.
