In Response To: Separate Clock for Breaks (Nack Ballard)

Is this idea too off the wall?
Each player have an egg timer?

Upsides: Simple, cheap, small to transport.

Downsides: Not sure how second accurate they are, bells going off in the tournament room an annoyance to others, yet another bit of kit to carry.
