The Bulbdial Clock is now available!

Check out their blog for an article about the kit, showcasing some of its features.

Then head on over to the ordering page for information on availability, styles, accessories, and prices. Here are some of the other styles:

Nice to read. Even though I still find your original idea with moving light sources better.

I’ve got it :)
I have learned that it doesn’t really work during the day (light drowns out LEDs) and it’s too bright for me to sleep at night, but I very much enjoy its use from the hours of 5 pm- 11 pm.
