The Makerverse™ Nano Power Timer cycles power to your project periodically, extending battery life. The timer will run continuously, consuming a (really tiny!) 35nA, before turning your project on after the set interval. Once your project has completed whatever it needs to do (eg. read sensors, log data), your controller can signal to the timer that it is DONE. The timer will remove power and wait for the next interval. Intervals from just a few seconds, to a couple of hours are easy to set with the six-position DIP switch and the most useful intervals can be selected with just one switch - refer to the labels on the back of the timer. Switch positions can be combined to create more granular intervals if necessary. For maximum flexibility, you can even customise the interval by soldering a resistor into the location marked USER. A full breakdown of switch combinations, and how to select a custom-time resistor is provided in the guide. Connecting to the Nano Power Timer is easy - a JST PH connector is available for directly connecting to lithium cells or AA/AAA Battery packs; other functions are broken out on the standard 0.1" breakout.

Makerverse Overview

Makerverse hardware is designed for makers, by makers. We're making the tools and modules we think are the most useful to electronics enthusiasts and people that just want to get their projects done. As experienced makers ourselves, we're building in the features and design considerations that we find most valuable and have wished for in other modules.

All Makerverse devices are products designed by our team in Newcastle Australia. We manufacture the modules here as well.
