    A NE555 could be sufficient and even more reductionist. =;-) Circuit example <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;theorycircuit.com&#x2F;ic-555-ic-741&#x2F;adjustable-duty-cycle-pwm-generator-circuit&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;theorycircuit.com&#x2F;ic-555-ic-741&#x2F;adjustable-duty-cycl...</a>

      This does the typical &quot;two short buzzes with a break in between&quot;. I think that would be hard with a singe NE555, and of course much more annoying&#x2F;complicated to fine-tune.<p>Also, the random delay between the notifications.

      A CD40106 could do the same and would even be more reductionist (and uses less current).

    Really needs an update, the No-Tiff-ier, that also doesn&#x27;t display an image, in addition to the other features.<p>For 2026, the No-Tiff-AIer extension is planned to also not bury you in slop.
