considering we, or at least I

, dont know anything about the chip and how fast it works, i assumed the crystal is 1/3Hz and i'd then want a 1Hz quartz to make it uptdate 3 times faster. the more i think about it, the less sense it makes

anyway, i cant find any crystals with low freq like that.

so the only reasonable way to improve this thing would be to first measure what the freq of the stock crystal is. a lot of people here have mad lab equipment at their disposal, anyone care to test the quartz?

starbuck3733t, got any links explaining how to use crystal in circuits?
