I needed this timer to replace a faulty one. I also needed to change the wiring of the contacts on the switch to isolate them from live. This is a fairly easy DIY job
After hunting and not finding many reliable digital timers around I settles for this one. Very easy to install and setup. Hopefully will last longer than the digital one it replaced
Good quality timer for the morning, does exactly what it's meant to do
Did the job, an easy swap over, like for like
A job most diy’er can do if they have a basic knowledge of electrics or wiring a plug.
Had been using SF Lap ones recently but really noisy & both failed just after 1 year but they all fail longest one lasted 5 yrs pre 2008 on twice a day, the micro switches burn out & 1 timer failed had about 10 over the years. This one's really quite, on/timer no off but should be connected to switched 13a fused spur anyway have decided to replace every year @ less then 20 pence a week & only switches once a day - just glad its quite SF had to soak in oil over night.
A basic mechanical timer thats used to turn some outside lights on. As its installed in the garage and the temperature can drop dramatically over winter I've always found mechanical timers work fine but digital ones tend to fail in low temperatures.
I've used these many times on customers projects etc.
Neat little item, fixings included good instructions
Does the job and an easy replacement. Simple to set.
Simple timer ,just as required. Good price ,easy to fit and available very quickly.
A well designed and very straightforward to wire device
Replacement for worn out timer for lighting in stairwells and exterior entrance lights in block of flats, easy to install and also makes a great upgrade to the original, purchased two, one for spare as I am sure the other timer will probably pack up soon. Good service too at the counter.
Easy swap for existing timer. Connectors easy and obvious
Replaced like for like to run heater after my old one’s clock lost time
Easy to wire with instructions but should read specs for compatibility to your device
Straightforward to wire up.
The wall fixing screws are a bit lightweight though. Maybe better to bin them and go for some slightly larger ones.
Once wired the time clock does what it should. Nice and simple and that’s how i like it.
The timer works as it supposed to work. It doesn’t lose time and switches the immersion on time . It is very easy to install and operate.
Easy to install timer for my immersion tank, not expensive either
Bought as direct replacement so easily swapped, previous one lasted seven years.
Great value.
Easy to fit
Easy to use.
Low on electricity
Like most of the immersion heater timers you can get it can’t switch the 3 kW load for long before the contact burns out so I wire it up to switch a heavy duty contactor.
The timer is so much more simple to set than the ones with digital displays, especially in dark airing cupboards. At less than a tenner it’s ok.
Inexpensive, fool proof, easy to fit, just the job.
