Inspired by another timer idea, I would like a two timing timer.
The scenerio:
I am baking a cake, yum, it takes 30 minutes to bake at 320
degrees.
I want to meditate for 20 minutes while the cake is baking. Then
when I am done, there will be a lovely cake to eat.
Hence I need a Two
Timer. A regular, functional kitchen timer
that can be set for two times. It buzzes for the first time just like
always, but behold, a beautiful Tibetan Gong rings for the second
time. That way you know the difference between the two. (And
no, I don't want two timers either.)
Win-Win.

Ah, but if a cake bakes without timer, and no one hears you eat it, does it still gain you a pound? |
|
|
I'm sure there's an app for that... |
|
|
Set the timer for the first one. Reset for the remaining
time. |
|
|
Or have an oven and a microwave each with their own
timers. |

Too easy, [MechE]. I need complex and interesting. |
|
|
Start up 2 instances of the timer app on your
smartphone;
one for 20 minutes and another for 30 minutes each with
distinct alarm sounds. |
|
|
I'd suggest a gong after 20 minutes meditation to avoid a
harsh end to the mood, and a buzzer after 30 minutes
cooking time. |
|
|
You might need to install 2 different timer apps, since an
app is likely to allow itself to run only 1 instance and
operate only 1 timer. |
