I just ordered a DGT 2500 chess clock for me and my kids. I will have it on my desk so that it's easily accessible. I saw that it can do 36 types of time control and wondered if there's a chance to use it like a pomodoro timer. Maybe a countdown timer for 25 minutes and then it beeps, push the lever and then another 5 minute break starts counting down before I need to reset it. Just a thought and wondered if and how this would be possible. Anyone who's got an idea or experience with this?
I had never heard of a pomodoro timer. I looked it up. https://zapier.com/blog/best-pomodoro-apps/
Sounds like a simple enough system-- a timed work period is followed by a timed break period.
All the people playing chess at work could use it in reverse. They could play a game for 25 minutes and then actually work for 5 minutes.
