Adjustable indicators for containers and methods for using and making the same are provided. In one embodiment, a method for changing the portion of indicia on a dial within a closure of a bottle cap that is visible to a user through a passageway in the bottle cap may include rotating the dial with respect to the closure by a first amount in a particular direction about a particular axis by forcing the dial towards a base for physically interacting with the base, and rotating the dial with respect to the closure by a second amount in the particular direction about the particular axis by forcing a button towards the dial for physically interacting with the dial. Additional embodiments are also provided.

[Object] To enable to visually recognizing information displayed on an outer circumferential surface of a member from an axial direction of the member and capable of switching selection elements while viewing the device from the axial direction. [Solution] A rotary switching device includes: a cylindrical first member that includes an outer circumferential surface on which predetermined information is displayed; a second member that is rotatable relative to the first member; a plurality of selection elements among which a selection target is switched in accordance with relative positions of the first member and the second member; a mirror surface part that is formed by a surface disposed around the outer circumferential surface of the first member and intersecting an axial direction of the first member, and that is configured to specularly reflect the information displayed on the outer circumferential surface of the first member to enable the information to be visually recognized from the axial direction of the first member; and an indicating part configured to indicate the selection element that is selected.

Disclosed is a device for displaying an instruction by a B14 or equivalent panel having a flat circular front plate with an instruction display area. In the case of a B14 panel, the digital value displayed can be modified by changing at least one modifiable character. The display area includes an opening and the panel includes at least one flat movable support on which the substitution figures are represented, the front plate and the flat movable support being parallel to each other, the flat movable support being included in the template of the front plate, each substitution figure being provided by an actuator facing the opening, the flat movable support or at least one of the flat movable support being a rotatable disc, the centre of the rotatable disc being laterally offset with respect to the centre of the circular front plate. The device is autonomous with photovoltaic power supply.
