LED Binary Clock

LED Binary Clock is a very simple binary clock that can be placed anywhere on the screen to display the current time in LEDs either horizontally or vertically.

Support for alarms

In essence just a basic clock, LED Binary Clock also provides an easy-to-use alarm utility that can be accessed via the System Tray icon.

View the time directly on your desktop

While the application shows the current time anywhere on the screen and not in the System Tray, it doesn't affect the other active windows, running below all the other programs.
The alarm tool is, as we said, pretty basic and it can be safely used by beginners, mostly thanks to the limited number of configuration options.

Setting up a new alarm

You thus have to set the date and time, the sound file to be played, write down a text message to be displayed on the screen and decide whether you wish to shut down computer on alarm or not.
And that's basically it. Of course, the ace up its sleeve is the fact that LED Binary Clock shows the current time in binary format, so it doesn't slow down the operating system at all. Although it works flawlessly on Windows XP, it doesn't load on Windows 7 and Vista.

Bottom line

Overall, LED Binary Clock is more like a Windows gadget that shows the time in binary format. It does have an alarm utility, but nothing too complex, so it serves its purpose in the easiest possible way. With a few improvements here and there whatsoever, as well as with a bunch of customization options, LED Binary Clock can easily become a powerful tool in this software category.
