Clear Power Outdoor Plug-in Lighting Timer, Dusk to Dawn Countdown Timer with 2 Grounded Outlets & 1 Remote Control, Photocell Light Sensor, 7 Preset Settings, 6 Inch Cord, DCOT-0006-DC

You can set it in increments, dusk-dawn, or turn it off and on with the remote control. Built for the weather, it is perfect for my outside lights so I can turn them off if I want to star-gaze. Great price for 2

Works like a charm. It goes on and off what we program it to

Worked great for my outdoor Christmas lighting. Thanks!!

Works very nicely as decribed...

Needed one 3 prong for inside and one 3 prong for outside.

It's easy enough to use and has been going for about five weeks without issues. Mine is suspended under the nesting box of a chicken coop and paying itself off in saved heater electricity. The switch has two modes--on, and timed. It would be good to add a third mode--off.Anyway, if it keeps working for another month, it will have at least paid for itself. It doesn't have to put up with direct rain or much direct sunlight, so I expect it to last a while longer. It keeps time admirably.

I have had my fair share of both mechanical and digital timers and know that each brand has their own programming guidelines. For the most part, any particular brand’s instructions will go from point A-B-C in a relatively similar fashion. If you’ve successfully programmed one, you should be able to program any of them. Well that’s definitely NOT the case with this timer. The instructions are clear, concise, and user friendly, yes. The problem I had and I can imagine I’m not the first, is the way this brand designed their program. I found the sequence completely unnecessary and more complicated than it ever needs to be. This timer doesn’t keep track of days of the week, the time of day, or A.M. or P.M. It was my fault for not reading the details of the timer listing assuming it operated like most timers. Now the PROs: 1) The two 3-prong outlets located at the base of the unit are spaced apart allowing you to effectively utilize both outlets with standard or bulky plugs. 2) There is an eyelet located on the wall plug’s cord which is a convenient feature for securing the unit to a wall. 3) A clear weather proof cover encases the display buttons on the unit protecting them from any potential damage from water or debris. Overall, the timer works for my needs.
