250 second timer

Need a quick productivity boost? The 250 second timer gives you just 4 minutes and 10 seconds — ideal for when you want to get something done without diving into a full-length task. Whether it’s tidying up, prepping lunch, or squeezing in a few stretches, this timer helps you get focused fast.

A timer for 250 seconds is long enough to make progress, yet short enough to feel approachable. You can use it as a quick creative warm-up, a countdown to get out the door, or to take a well-earned break between tasks. It’s also a great add-on to a 52-17 productivity cycle, giving you a little buffer time before the next work sprint begins.

Why Use One 250 Second Timer?

With a one 250 second timer, you can time short activities without the pressure of a longer countdown. Need to time the steeping of loose-leaf tea? Or maybe you want to give your muscles a quick cooldown with a stretching routine? This timer hits that practical middle ground where productivity meets simplicity.

Fun Fact
