Hi,

I'm using node-red-contrib-countdown-2 to setup a timer. I have two issues.

First, I am giving myself the remaining seconds on the second output of the node. When the timer runs out, it gives me 1 as remaining time and not 0.

If I change the timer to minutes, then it is not possible for me to set a time of 1 minute. The timer only runs from 2 minutes.

How can I solve the issues?

I am using the original `node-red-contrib-countdown` and I have a working timer that I use as a subflow. I use it for being able to set as many different timers as I want. I just need to pass in the number of minutes and seconds that I want.

Can you post your flow json so we can have a look.
