Using seconds with rtc for less than a minute timer

@septillion

I will have a look at this aswell, i cant seem to get my head around how i can get it to start and stop something? could i have an example im unsure of the structure

Agreed. Although I think doing all that multiplication to get a single variable to compare is just a it mehh.

I would consider:
Code: [Select]
unsigned long relayTimeFootprint = (hours << 12) || (minutes << 6) || seconds;

But I think I would just give in and use three comparisons... Just because it's so damn clear what's going on if you do.
