i'm looking for a LED (not LCD) clock for a 12v automotive use. and have not been able to find one. The unit needs to fit the folloowing criteria:

4-6 numeric digits (hr:min or hr:min:sec:)

less than the following dimentions: 2"tall x 4"wide (depth does not matter)

It would be awesome it the LEDs were blue but i'll settle for red or green

does anyone know where i can find one? I've looked all over including Ebay.

I'm not aware that anyone manufactures one. I have checked all of my electronics suppliers that I get my chips for school from and nothing is specifically led's. A lot of 7 segment displays but not led's. I'll keep looking though.

Good Luck!

it doesn't have to be LED, but the numbers themselves must be illuminated (not back light) I want somthing I can see in the dark easily
