(13,340 posts)Seriously.... anyone vaguely familiar with electronics would not be in the least suspicious of that project. I do hobby electronics (in addition to being an actual engineer). There is nothing in that project that would make me suspicious. What's there?
A power cord. A back-up battery. Both of those are connected to a micro-controller board. the micro-controller is connected to a display, a speaker, and a user interface card (with buttons). NOTHING there is suspicious. If you were going to use this to trigger explosives, the obvious (and easiest) way to do would be to use the speaker wires. The speaker, however, is still attached. If he were making a fake bomb, those speaker wires would be attached to fake explosives.
The only people who be alarmed by this, are people who watch too damned much "24" and have no idea that a bomb actually requires explosives, not just a clock.
