Chronochrome: a Clock and a Night-Lamp in One
At first sight one may think that the Chronochrome is a mere night-lamp. But in fact this original device is also a puzzle-clock which tells the time with the help of combinations of different colours. To tell the time the owner should know what colour stands for different numerals. And then everything becomes easy – the first two colour-squares show hours, the second two – minutes and finally the third two –seconds.
The original clock serves also as a night-lamp and can perform original light shows.
As far as the colour code is concerned, the fully unlit display means 00:00:00 and the other colours mean:
0 -Black (unlit)
1 - Pink
2 - Red
3 - Orange
4 - Yellow
5 - Green
6 - Blue
7 - Purple
8 - Cyan
9 - White
So 12:34:56 according to the Chronochrome will look like that:
The Chronochrome includes a plug-top power supply that plugs into the mains and provides the device with safe, low voltage, low current power (5 Volts 300mA max). The clock measures 250 mm in width, 90 mm in height and 90 mm in depth (base).
Chronochrome - the colour clock - is an unusual gift for people who appreciate something different. This is the present for the man or woman who has everything. The unique Chronochrome makes an original gift or conversation piece - there’s nothing quite like it on sale anywhere else in the world.
