Why use a 43-minute timer?
A 43-minute timer is useful when standard intervals (Pomodoro 25, ultradian 90, NASA nap 26) don't quite match your task. Sits between the 30-minute (13 min above) and 45-minute (2 min below) standards.

Frequently asked questions
Why use a 43-minute timer specifically?
43-minute sessions cover full study halls, AP-essay timed-writes, complete cooking recipes, and meditation deep-dives. Research on attention (Lemov) places ~45-60 minutes as the upper bound for sustained academic focus before requiring a real break.
Does the 43-minute timer keep accurate time?
For 43-minute intervals, accuracy is typically within 1 second across the full window when the tab stays open. If you minimize the browser for hours, some operating systems aggressively throttle background tabs — keep the tab visible if exact end-time matters for cooking or testing.
Should I keep this timer running for a full 43-minute session?
Yes — keep the tab open and visible for the full 43-minute. Modern browsers throttle background tabs aggressively, especially on battery-powered devices, which can delay the alarm or cause inaccurate end times. Pin the tab if you need to switch away briefly.
What happens when the 43-minute timer reaches zero?
The alarm plays and the page flashes. For 43-minute sessions you have likely shifted attention to other work — that audio cue is what brings you back. The alarm is loud enough to be noticeable across a room without being startling.
