Hi Chris,
It can be run from a 12 Volt battery just fine.
Thanks
You must use a PIC programer. Some machines will do EPROMs and PIC chips but it is rare.
Try one of the other assorted photo cells, you need one that is high resistance when in darkness.
It is available on the kit site:

Hi Fonz,
There is no diagram for this device, it was just hand built at the time from quick hand drawn diagrams.
Are you looking for LED resistor calculations?

Hi Stanley,
The LEDs are fixed in place, the slot is the only thing that is moving. The LEDs are then flashed at the correct time to shine the light through the slot.

Thanks Chris,
I came up with the hard drive clock after taking a hard drive apart and thinking what it could be made into.
