Sign up for Velleman Scrolling Clock Solder Assembly Kit – 35 LEDs, Animated Time & Date Display, Intermediate Level DIY Electronics Project
If you're into soldering and electronics, this Velleman scrolling clock kit is a super fun project.
It's an intermediate-level build that uses 35 LEDs to create a rolling, animated display that scrolls the time and date—looks way cooler than your average digital clock.
You can cycle through hours, minutes, month, and day using the SELECT button, and set values with the SET button.
It runs on a 9-12V DC adapter or a 9V battery (the battery also serves as backup so your settings don't get lost when unplugged).
Current draw is only 20mA max, so it's pretty efficient.
You can fine-tune the clock speed with a small trimmer (CV1) to keep it accurate, and it supports both 12-hour and 24-hour modes.
This is a great project for hobbyists looking to test their skills—it's not a beginner kit, but it's very doable if you've got some soldering experience.
