No more fan running
By Atkray
I bought this for a bathroom fart-fan that is downstairs and because of it's age is a tad noisy. Because the kids use the bathroom there is a tendency for them to leave the fan on for hours on end. This solved that problem.

I have wiring experience so installation was simple for me but anyone that can use a screwdriver and pliers can install this. I looked at the timers that are longer but figured 5 minutes was long enough. The switch itself is robust and installed in my double switch box without problems. I needed the pliers to straighten the wires out. Total installation time was about 5 minutes 2 of which were spent making sure I turned off the correct breaker.

Robust general purpose timer
By Ted
Luckily, the timer is very simple and robust.
It was unfortunate that the unit supplied did not have any screws for the terminals and did not switch at all.
On opening it up it was clear that the unit had not been assembled well. The fault was easily fixed.

I suspect that this unit had been returned stock which got mixed up with good new stock.
When working, the timer is quite robust and reasonably accurate.
