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

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)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.

Programmable Wall Switch Timer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This programmable timer wall switch works great. We use it to turn on and off a heated towel rack in the bathroom. Had to hit the reset button after first application of power (didn't see that in the instructions, but it may have been there). Took a bit to figure out the programming, but after that, it was a breeze. 20 different programs that can be set for either every day, work week days, weekend days or single days gives you a tremendous variety of options. There is also a random setting. The Countdown timer program could be explained better. Also allows use with 3 way switch circuits if desired.
All in all we are very satisfied. Will probably consider adding a few more to control some outside lights.

This Programmable Wall Switch Timer is designed to be a replacement for your standard indoor On/Off wall switch. It has a heavy-duty 1800W load capacity while giving you the ability to manage up to 20 different On/Off programs. Being able to schedule on and off times for lights and appliances can greatly reduce the amount of electricity consumption, by limiting the hours a switch can be used. Programs can be set to daily times, to a specific period, or to everyday of the week. Additionally, the switch has a built-in daylight savings function, random function, and a countdown timer feature. There is an LCD display that shows time in 12 hour or in 24 hours format and makes accurate programming easy to do. The large On/Off switch is actually a clever casing that hides all the programming buttons, and if you need to access them the switch simply flips up. This switch is a great choice for replacing any single pole or 3-way application where you want to add a large load, timers, or energy conservation.

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

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 EJ500C Indoor Digital Wall Switch Timer Review

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 WH21 Electric Water Heater Timer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This product is easy to install if you know what you are doing.
You should have some background in electrical ampacity and wiring basics.
I did have to purchase an additional pigtail.(flex tubing with 3 #10 color coded wires, and 1/2 connectors on each end about 5 feet total length)
The heater had the wiring flex tubing direct from the wall to the top of the heater. The additional material was about 10.75 at the local hardware store.
I unhooked the wiring from the heater and wired it to the timer, then wired the new pigtail to where I had disconnected the original wires.
The timer has knockouts on the bottom for either 1/2 or 3/4 inch connectors so if it will accomodate either one. You most likely will have 1/2" connections.
Make sure you turn off the breaker before you start.
The entire process took about an hour total.
The instructions that come with the timer aren't that great, so if you don't know what you are doing, it won't help much.
The timer comes with 3 sets of on/off clips so you can time it on and off 3 times.
We set it at on at 5 am, off at 8 am, then on at 8 pm off at 10 pm.
So the timer is on 5 hours a day and off 19.
We figgure we will save around 25 dollars a month off the electric bill.
So... it will take at least 2 months to pay for the timer and other materials we bought. If you pay someone to install it, it will take much longer to pay for itself.
So far, it is working properly and so I am satisfied.

Lux Products ELV4 Programmable Line Voltage Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this thermostat (four of them actually) to replace four 28-year old analog thermostats controlling the baseboard heating in a condo I bought as a second home. These digital units immediately let me set temperatures without having to guess and constantly juggle to get a proper temperature as the old non-digital thermostats required. They hold temperatures within a nice narrow range (although they can be programmed via a dip switch to let temperatures fluctuate a bit more for possible energy savings) for each room. Installation was simple (note that you do want to cap off the second set of wires if you have a 120V system -- read the instructions and note how any existing thermostats are wired to make installation easy). The $2 faceplates which can be ordered separately seem to be necessary to get a finished look on the installation since the thermostats apparently do not mount flush to all boxes.
Each unit takes 2 batteries (AA) so get them before you install the unit. They recommend two major brands and no others -- probably a good idea to follow that suggestion. This is not a "rechargeable battery" setup.

Leviton VPT24-1PZ Vizia + 1800W Incandescent, 15A Resistive, Inductive 1HP 24-Hour Timer with Astronomical Clock, White/Ivory/Light Almond Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pros:
- Clear installation instructions.
- Easy to program the automatic sunset/sunrise times.
- Informative display.
- Built-in rechargeable backup battery; no need to replace disposable batteries.
- Works well with LED bulbs (I am using an INCU7W 7W LED bulb). See below.
Cons:
- Pricey (I have seen timers for about $25).
- No long-term experience with the built-in rechargeable battery.
- Display is difficult to read unless the backlight is on.
Notes:
1. If you want to use the automatic sunset/sunrise time to control a load, you need to perform 3 steps: program the time/date, set your latitude and longitude, and finally set one on/off event.
2. My previous timer, an Intermatic EJ500 timer, did not turn off the power completely when it should have been off. This problem became evident when I replaced an incandescent bulb with a LED bulb. The LED bulb would blink every few seconds while the timer was in the "off" position. I did not notice it when I used an incandescent bulb because the latter needs much more power to generate light than the LED bulb. The blinking did not consume much power, but many guests told me that my light is burnt out. The problem was rectified by installing the Leviton VPT24.

Aube by Honeywell TH106/U Electric Heating 7-Day Programmable Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this thermostat for my den, which has electric baseboard heat. The original thermostat looked like it was 30 years old; instead of a dial with temperatures, it had one ranging from 0 to 4. Getting the room to a comfortable temperature was impossible.
This thermostat is simple to use and is VERY good at keeping the temperature steady. It is also silent. Programming it is pretty straightforward. I should mention that you cannot set completely distinct temperatures for each time of day. You basically enter a warn daytime temp and a cooler night temp. When programming, you decide which of the two temps to use during each period of the day. This limitation actually makes it simpler to program and works well for me.
The only feature that is missed is a back-light.
Pros:
Holds temperature steady
Silent operation
7-day programmable (vs 5-2)
Cons:
No Back-light
