is convenient when you can see the time at a distance.
implementation
use Morse code (only idea morse code)
12 hour 57 minute
looks like this: -** -----****(*)** //- long signal LED * short signal LED (*)signal brighter //
does not look very comfortable.
offer a minute rounded up a dozen
that is
12 hour 57 minute = 1 hour (code: *)
4 hour 16 minute = 4 hour 20 minute (code: **** **)
9 hour 33 minute = 9 hour 30 minute (code: ****(*)**** ***)
12 hour 22 minute = 12 hour 20 minute (code: -* **)
3 hour 42 minute = 3 hour 40 minute (code: *** ****)
lol still would be cool

It shouldn't be too hard to write a daemon that wakes up every minute to replace the PatternBatteryCharging LED pattern in /etc/mce.ini and to restart MCE.
It would be nice if there was a cleaner way to do this without writing to flash and restarting MCE all the time.

I admire you, if you can count the lights and think which time it is based on the pattern in the night, directly after awaking.
I think I couldn't..
But nevertheless very cool and geeky idea. Shouldn't be that difficult.

It seems to work without restarting MCE all the time.
