Also a very cool idea

Thanks! Yes I hate fiddling with my phone in the darkroom and wanted physical controls. I have not really gone down the rabbit hole of building out complex dodge and burn functionality because I feel like everyone's process is a little bit different but maybe that's my limited perspective.

Interesting idea! I definitely see how that could be preferable. I am not planning to do an app mainly because I see so many abandoned or barely maintained film apps out there and I don't want to add to that noise. If this becomes something I sell I want to it to work without having to have...

All of the the parts to this are already actually open source. Right now I'm just focusing on feedback to see if this is something people might want as some form of product or kit. (So to be clear I'm not sure yet if this will be a commercial product but it might become that.)

I'm considering selling it. Just focusing on feedback to the idea right now. I need to learn more about your setup but I believe this could handle it because I do the actual switching of the main power with this.

Thanks! For your first question: do you mean you physically adjust the enlarger head to do a test strip on a specific area and then back it down to do a full print? And yes, the +1, 2, 3 aren't full stops - they are intervals of the chosen of 1/8, 1/4, 1/3, or 1/2 stops.

Hey everyone - I've been working on a DIY f-stop enlarger timer for my home darkroom and recently put together a 10-minute walkthrough video of it in action. I'm sharing it here because I'd genuinely love to hear what the darkroom community thinks. This is not a sales pitch. I'm still very much...
