the extra level of complication would provide any real benefit.

Yes, I am reluctant to use loops for that reason.

I could definitely do a simple read RTC in a loop until the time
difference from when I started the loop is what I want it to be...

I'll try to get that working, but I am open to other suggestions as well!


Thanks!
