I was able to purchase a GraLab 900 model timer for $31.50 shipped. Before I had been using an old Time-O-Lite one that would literally knock the setting off about 2sec every time it reset. A nightmare for consistency.

What does everyone else use? Any experience with the 900? I think we had the 450s back in school. Those were nice, reliable units.

For film development I use something that looks exactly like this:

Although, Led Zeppelin I has a few tracks that time developing and fixing well (You Shook Me, Dazed & Confused, Your Time Is Gonna Come for example can work very nicely indeed Wink )

Laughing Oh, it's an enlarger timer. You can plug in the enlarger and safe-lights and choose exposure time for the paper.

Although I really like that Led Zeppelin idea!
