Didn’t get to work on the Cat Feeder Unreminder but there are lots of interest and ideas in our slack channel!

TheStumbler

Found a 12hr egg timer. Defeats the purpose of building and learning a new embedded skill.

Eric McFall

E-Ink for the persistent display.
This is a great idea. I will look through my parts bins for a e-ink. Might have one.

Derek

Does it count as feature creep if the project is still doing the same thing but is way more complicated?

Tony W

Jack in the box

Has been working with Flip Dot displays. Kinda power hungry in short bursts. 4A for only 5ms.

Bombledmonk

Go solar
Sanyo / Panasonic has panels for indoor lighting

Stephen

Snap dome buttons

Interesting requirements for footprints. Not sure how to do it.
Snaptron BL-series
0.07 or 0.01” hole for LED - not a whole lot…
