aussievintage Posted June 7, 2020 Posted June 7, 2020 Noticed that in the recent newsletter. I don't know. I'd keep forgetting, and I'd need one for each turntable
audiofeline Posted June 7, 2020 Posted June 7, 2020 (edited) This is probably similar to kitchen count up/down timers that are a few dollars from China/eBay. Another option - costing a few dollars used by some to count stylus hours is this mechanical clicker - no worries about batteries dying. Click for each LP side played. Hours can be calculated by multiplying the clicks by 25 (or what you think your average LP side playing time is) for total minutes, then dividing by 60 for total hours. Approximate, but close enough.

The Blues Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 I found an old Singer knitting machine timer, works just like the cheap clickers
Stump Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Will it reset the hours to the standard used 120 Hrs when selling the cart?? Stump 1

Andy It's from a mechanical knitting machine, not a sewing machine. I've got no idea how they work, just found this spare part at an opshop.

This is what I have except it's mounted on a stand. then keep the results in a spreadsheet for each cartridge 1
