Any stopwatch recommendations? I need one with a long battery life that can be used for 10 hours per day at the most.
Any with a standard lcd screen can work for years indefinitely
Think about it this way. Your standard Casio terrorist watch uses no more power when it enters its stop watch mode and it lasts for 5+years on a single battery
Go to amazon and get the one with the best reviews under $10
All of them will be quartz crystal based meaning they all will be significantly more accurate than your reaction time

the classic Casio F91W

i had one in middle/highschool, very reliable, i don't think i ever remember replacing the battery.
Guys, it has to work for 10 hours per day AT MOST. It needs to have a built-in cutoff switch to ensures it cannot function longer than that each day.
OP- sounds like you need to read books on electronics and programming. Also get yourself a 3D printer and a few Arduinos and Raspberry Pi's. You'll figure it out. Post results.

A quartz Crystal oscillates around 262khz in a watch, so all you need to do is measure 9,432,000,000 oscillations, cut off screen and control, then turn control/screen on again again in 13,204,800,000 more oscillations
