Clock built into helmet

[Vultren]

Hey guys,

 

So after trooping events, I sometimes find it annoying not being able to find out what time it is. So I was thinking maybe there is a way to get a clock installed into my helmet.

 

After doing some research on ways of making it so I could do this with light weight, I came up with the idea of a small projector that shoots out the time.

 

Here is my solution:-----------

 

It's super cheap first off. Like $2.50?! So I figured I'd pick up two of these and try them out.

 

Has anyone done this or thnks this might be a good idea? Curious about your opinions on this.

I also think that site has some pretty cool gadgets for good prices too. I'll be getting a few things on there actually.

It might not weight a lot, but it may take a lot of space from your helmet IMO. But it looks good

Even if it can't be in a helmet, could still be a cool belt accessory, or else I wonder if you take it apart put one in a comlink?

Good idea!

Exactly, I will try this out and post on here in a few weeks and let you guys know if it worked or not.

Put it in your E 11 or scope!

 

"what time is it?"

 

"set for stun and find out!".

I think the timepiece in the bucket is a brilliant idea.

 

Have you thought of using a more conventional solution like a small digital clock just off to the side?

I think it's a cool idea, but think that if it was in your helmet it would end up being so close to your head/face that it would be out of focus. I like the idea of putting it in your blaster somewhere.

Why not put one on or in the counter box on the blaster? Just a thought I had.

Good point. I'll have to do some testing.

Adding to the blaster would be a good idea.

 

If it fails to work in the helmet, I'll implement it into my E-11. Great ideas guys!

I think your best solution would be a simple button activated audiable speaking clock to an ear piece or similar. It's hard enough as it is to see inside a trooper lid.

A feature that I'm working in to my blaster is a -----------. As an added bonus I can fire my blaster as a starting gun and it will activate the stop watch . We'll see how this goes, but I think it will be pretty handy.

 

Has anyone else tried working a clock in to their kit?
