8 Hour Timer

This timer draws 8 hours as 20 concentric rings; one empties every 24 minutes, so a glance shows how far along you are without reading a digit. It chimes at zero, keeps counting in a background tab, runs fullscreen, and exports as a free MP4 video. Handy for a standard workday, a full night of sleep, or soaking overnight oats.

Eight hours

Eight hours is the workday, the night's sleep, and the slow cooker on low. It is the longest span most people time regularly, and the dial treats it gently: each ring is twenty-four minutes, five rings is two hours, and the face splits into four two-hour quarters. Set it and put the phone down; the countdown follows the clock in a background tab and the chime carries.

The workday as one shape

A standard working day is eight hours, lunch aside, and a dial started at the desk in the morning gives the whole day a single shape. It does not tell you what to do; it tells you the truth about how much of the day is gone, which is useful at ring ten, when the afternoon starts, and at ring seventeen, when it is time to stop opening new things. For blocks inside the day, the 1 hour dial and the pomodoro page are the finer tools.

A night's sleep

Eight hours in bed is the usual target, and this dial can work as a gentle alarm for a nap-heavy or jet-lagged day: start it as the light goes off, and the double chime at zero is the wake. It makes no sound until then. Use it for a single night rather than as the alarm you rely on; a phone's alarm is louder and repeats.

Slow cooker on low, overnight oats

Eight hours on low is the setting for the stews, pulled meats, and bean dishes that go on before work and are ready at dinner. Overnight oats set in the fridge in the same span, from the last thing at night to breakfast. Start the dial as the lid goes on or the jar goes in, and let the chime remind you the food is ready.

Splitting a day

  • Two four-hour halves: switch at ring ten, which is lunch.
  • Four two-hour quarters: switch every fifth ring; each quarter is a pomodoro set.
  • Eight hours, one per hour: every two and a half rings.

Nearby

Ribs and a school day are six hours; a brisket and a long-haul flight are ten. Every duration is on the timers page.

How long is each ring?

24 minutes. The dial always has 20 rings, and this timer runs 8 hours.

Is there a shorter or longer version?

Yes. The nearest pages are the 6 hour timer and the 10 hour timer, and the custom field on any dial takes an exact length.
