How to set start time and end time in fullcalendar from input textboxes using jquery timepicker

Question

In my modal I have two input textbox startTime and endTime using jquery timepicker

I'm able to stick the event in the right date selected from the jquery ui calendar but How can I get the values from Start Time and End Time then set those values in event of fullcalendar?

I know how to get the values in those input e.g. $('#startTime').val() but stacked in there to set it as the start Time for the fullcalendar.

Below is my code:

  function setTimeValues(x,y)
{
    var startHour = parseInt( $('#startTime').val());
    var endHour = parseInt($('#endTime').val());

    //x = moment(x)
    //            .set({ hour: parseInt(_startHour), minute: parseInt(_startMinutes), date: parseInt(_day), month: parseInt(_month), year: parseInt(_year) }) 
    //            .toDate();

    // y = moment(y)
    //           .set({ hour: parseInt(_endHour), minute: parseInt(_endMinute), date: parseInt(_day), month: parseInt(_month), year: parseInt(_year) })
    //           .toDate();



    $("#calendar").fullCalendar('renderEvent',
    {
        title: $('#CustomerFullName :selected').text(),
        description: $('#description').val(),
        start: x,
        end: y,
        allDay: false
    },

        true)

Thanks!

I finally found a solution using javascript date function instantiate and append the actual value from the input elements. below is the code

    var startHour =  $('#startTime').val();
    var endHour = $('#endTime').val();

    var s = new Date("April 9, 2016 " + startHour)
    var e = new Date("April 9, 2016 " + endtHour)

and after that, use the moment js to set date,hour and minutes for both start date and end-date

     x = moment(x)
                .set({ hour: parseInt(s.getHours() - 8), minute: parseInt(s.getMinutes()), date: parseInt(_day), month: parseInt(_month), year: parseInt(_year) }) 
                .toDate();

     y = moment(y)
               .set({ hour: parseInt(e.getHours() - 8), minute: parseInt(e.getMinutes()), date: parseInt(_day), month: parseInt(_month), year: parseInt(_year) })
               .toDate();

As you noticed, I subtract 8 because for some reason the fullcalendar always adds 8 from the initial value of Hour from the input element jquery timepicker so I subtract 8.

Code for fullcalendar

  $("#calendar").fullCalendar('renderEvent',
    {
        title: $('#CustomerFullName :selected').text(),
        description: $('#description').val(),
        start:  x,
        end: y,
        allDay: false
    },
