The pxlBlck_RingClock is the pxlBlck_SlotClock <\/a><\/em><\/strong>very similar. It is also constructed using a 1\u00d760 LED matrix and can display the time according to the same scheme as the pxlBlck_SlotClock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the LED strip in the pxlBlck_RingClock is installed in a ring and not in a disk. This makes the design of the clock even more unobtrusive. The microcontroller for control is built into the base of the pxlBlck_RingClock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You have the choice between a minimalist base in which the ESP8266 is housed as compactly as possible. If, on the other hand, you want a little more stability and perhaps even space for an RTC, you can also build the pxlBlck_RingClock with the larger base. If you also install the RTC, you can also use the pxlBlck_RingClock without an active WiFi connection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All information about the structure of the pxlBlck_RingClock can be found in the following article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety instructions <\/span><\/h2>\r\n

I know the following notes are always kind of annoying and seem unnecessary. Unfortunately, many people who knew "better" have lost eyes, fingers or other things due to carelessness or injured themselves. Data loss is almost negligible in comparison, but even these can be really annoying. Therefore, please take five minutes to read the safety instructions. Because even the coolest project is not worth injury or other trouble.<\/span>

For the assembly you have to master soldering tasks. The following articles contain tips on this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
