Woods 59396 30-Amp Timer for Heavy Duty Appliances and Outlets, Repeats Daily SPST Review

Woods 59396 30-Amp Timer for Heavy Duty Appliances and Outlets, Repeats Daily SPST
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this to switch a well pump. I didn't notice in the description, but this will only switch a single pole (SPST). I figured 30 amps, that was should be two poles. But is physically missing the connectors. I kept this (figured I could always use another timer) and ordered the 40 amp DPST version.

Leviton 6124H-W Leviton 6124H-W Decora LCD Timer Switch (24 Hour), White Review

A high tech solution to control just about any light - I installed mine to control the exterior lights in front of my house. The overall quality of the switch is excellent, and it is fairly easy to program.
I had another timer switch (different brand) before this one, but the quality was poor and it actually stopped working within 12 months of installation. The Leviton switch has no moving parts, so I expect it to last for several years.
The switch can be programmed to turn on and off several times a day, if desired. There is also a button to manually turn on/off the light being controlled.
The only possible limitation of this switch is that it cannot program on/off times for different days of the week. If you don't need this feature, then I highly recommend this switch.

24-Hour Dial Time Switch Review

24-Hour Dial Time Switch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Why only 4 stars? Because it didn't last over 20 years. Why not 3 stars? Because it's still available to replace the exact model that wore out. How good is it really? I'm not an electrician so I don't know.
I had this exact timer for my water heater at an old, I said old house. I have this exact one at my current house for my pool pump. The timer went out after 15-18 years service. We live in Florida and perhaps the moisture got to a metal gear inside. Who knows. I didn't like the plastic timers at the local big box home store. Two employees at the store hinted that their products weren't the same quality as what I already had.
I didn't expect this timer, which appears to have been in production for 30 or more years, to still be on the market. I wanted it because I expected it to last a long time and would fit right into place over the other one.
Convenience? Check
Longevity? Check
Handles 240V? Check
Fits the same screw holes already drilled? Check
Has all the same knockouts & conduits in the same place? Check
Don't want to figure out the wiring? Check
All the existing wires already cut to just the right length? Check
Bottom line, I took out the old one and put this in within an hour. It works perfectly and I can forget about it.

Sylvania SA170 15 Amp Zip-Set Digital Wall Switch Timer Review

Sylvania SA170 15 Amp Zip-Set Digital Wall Switch Timer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This switch is good looking and very easy to use. The ZIP-set feature is especially useful if you use it to control outdoor lighting - it calculates the sunset time and turns on automatically at dusk. No more manual resets throughout the year. Installation is easy and the instructions are clear. It switches compact fluorescent (CF) bulbs.
However read this VERY CAREFULLY before you purchase this switch: it needs to be connected to a NEUTRAL wire. Many 2-pole light switches only switch the hot wire of the circuit and you may not be able to find the necessary neutral wire to connect this. Look into your junction box to confirm the presence of the neutral wire if you are replacing and existing switch. If you find only 2 wires of the same color connected to and around the old switch, you probably won't be able to swap in this one (or any other CF-capable digital timer switch) without rewiring the circuit.

Intermatic FD30MC 30-Minute Spring Loaded Wall Timer, Ivory Review

Intermatic FD30MC 30-Minute Spring Loaded Wall Timer, Ivory
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This switch works fine - it's quiet and it's perfect for our bathroom fan that we often would forget to turn off. The only downside is that if you use a ceramic wall plate (or probably any style of wall plate that's thicker than normal), the rotating switch might not stick out far enough. To deal with this you'll need to replace your wallplate with a GFCI-style plate (the type with one large rectangular opening), and you'll need to trim the plastic faceplate included with the switch so that it'll fit. I did this and I'm happy with the results.

Intermatic T104 208-277-Volt DPST 24 Hour Mechanical Time Switch Review

Intermatic T104 208-277-Volt DPST 24 Hour Mechanical Time Switch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This timer is usually used to control 230V swimming pool filter pumps. It operates a single on/off cycle during a 24-hour period, which is adjustable, requires 230 volts for operation and switches both poles (hot wires). My original timer finally expired after more than 30 years of use, so I bought this replacement from Amazon, which was less expensive than buying one from my local electrical distributor.
Fortunately, this new mechanism fits and snaps right into the old Intermatic housing. For those who just need to replace the functional parts, this greatly simplifies the installation. Amazon's price for the entire timer assembly including the metal housing was less than others charge for just the mechanism itsef.
It was shipped promptly, arrived undamaged and at a good price.

Intermatic EJ500C Indoor Digital Wall Switch Timer Review

Intermatic EJ500C  Indoor Digital Wall Switch Timer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We purchased one of these four years ago to control our entry lights. That was the last time we touched it. The unit asks you to set the turn on - off times, and set the time and date when you install it, then you really don't have to do much else. With the auto adjust feature, it resets for daylight savings time, and one setting will automatically turn the lights on when it's getting close to dusk, then off at your preselected time - nice if you don't want to install a photocell or manually change start times throughout the year.
My only complaint is that the LCD screen is very small, particularly showing day of week, which means when you do decide to change times you'll have to really squint to see what you're doing. But fortunately, for most, this won't be a regular event.

Intermatic ST01AC Heavy Duty In-Wall Timer with Astronomic Feature, Almond Review

Intermatic ST01AC Heavy Duty In-Wall Timer with Astronomic Feature, Almond
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Purchased ST01AC for the porch light and it works great. Instructions are good, easy to install and program. Even comes with a quick program instruction sheet so you can have it working in minutes. I replaced a single pole switch with it but it can be used with a 3 way switch also. Can be set for the new DST and can even be adjusted. i.e.: I set it to come on at Dusk but I advanced the sunset time 15 minuets so it comes on 15 minuets after sunset (saves about 2 hrs. burn time a week) then turn off at a certain time rather than burn all night and turn off at sunrise, which it can also do. Overall a good switch for the money, I would buy another one and I just might for the driveway lights.

Intermatic WH40 Electric Water Heater Timer, Grey Review

Intermatic WH40 Electric Water Heater Timer, Grey
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Easy to put on a wall, easy to hook up, doesn't make a sound. Important, when you take the insides out to mount, this is done by depressing the spring clip on top, and lift and pull out. Reassembly is reverse, but you have to make sure the side/bottom edges are behind the stops. If your not back and down all the way, the insides will seem loose and the timer will/could make noise, has you may read about in other reviews.
Our timer has not been mounted and running long enough to figure the savings, ours is set to run two hours in the morning and two hours in the evening. Our water heater, stays hot all day, every time we use water we got hot water all day and night when it is off mode. I am sure this will show great savings!!

Vizia RF + VRS15-1LZ Switch (Z-Wave), 15A Review

Vizia RF + VRS15-1LZ Switch (Z-Wave), 15A
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been using Intermatic (now Wayne Dalton) z-wave products for a few years now. They were OK but always felt cheap when pressing them. This Vizia switch is much better in that regard. The switch action is very positive with a satisfying CLICK when activated. I had no trouble at all integrating the switch into my z-wave network. The switch is also slightly less deep and fits better in a wall box than the Intermatic switches.
One note in case you can't make it out from the photo: the switch does not rock like a normal toggle switch. You press the bottom extended portion once to turn on and again to turn off. That is a little odd but you get used to it quickly. And the button stick out enough you can press it with an elbow if your hands are full.
