Heh. Yes. A less circuitous route might be best.

Yah I wondered the same thing. Or at least my thoughts took it as far
as installing a resistor in the circuit. The pot makes sense.

But now I'm really curious about the analogue clock w/temp gauge.

I guess the LED would indicate 12:00  ?  ;)

Or is the clock face smaller OD?
