ABSTRACT:
A timing device comprises a container of a transparent material, a channel in said container, and a flotation liquid and a float in said channel, said float having a density different from that of said flotation liquid. Flotation liquid compositions are disclosed which provide a transit time of said float through said channel which is essentially independent of temperature over the normal ambient room temperature range. A number of the embodiments provide for adjustment of the transit times over a substantial range of times.
