Microwave time (lemmy.ml)

"How do you convert seconds to microwave time? let's say you have 60 seconds that would be 00:60 but if you have 61 seconds then it would be 01:01

What's the wizardry /g/?"

I mean, most microwaves will recognize base 10 seconds. I can put 0:90 on mine and it will go for 1:30.

Yup, about all of them does that. Wait until this guy see a clock with Roman numerals ๐Ÿ˜‚

This clock goes to 11! But it does it right after 1. Weird.

That's crazy. I have literally never encountered that. 100% of the microwaves with a digital display I've used shows 1:00 when you go past 00:59.

I just tested mine. It counts down 99, 98, 97, etc. it even does this.1 minute 96 seconds

This is really wild, Haha. Mine, and the five in the office dining room, and all other I've encountered act like the images below. If you turn the knob after 00:50 it goes to 1:00
