Sir, you don't know how much you just saved my household from my rants and fits from trying to program this thing! Thank You

[swayteca]

I HAVE TWO OF THESE AND JUST COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW I DID IT THE LAST TIME reading the freaking INSTRUCTIONS, thanks a ton, very well explained and reviewed.

[mollesjohn]

I just two of these (they came two in a box) and after listening to the official videos, I had several questions. You answered them all. I can't thank you enough for taking your time to explain how these things work. The company should have, but didn't. THANK YOU SO VERY VERY MUCH!

[yucgfls]

Thanks, had not used it in a while and could not remember how. Lost the instructions. Tried another video just before this and the guy forgets how to program it halfway in. I appreciate you

[cosmicsatan]

A far better communicator than the rest of the guys attempting to show how this timer works. Very informative and to the point. Thanks a bunch!

[Gallagherfreak]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It is refreshing to have a person explaining a procedure, who has English as a FIRST language! Very helpful!

[linnelinne]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I tried to program my dual outlet timer last night, then just tried to turn the display lights off...finally unplugged them. This morning I started searching for a "dual outlet for idiots" that just went on and off one time each day...couldn't find one. Found your video. You are a wonderful instructor for a complicated (I don't care if the manufacturers' say it is "easy") timer. Now I am all set!!! Once again, Thank You!

[timventura]

Bruce - You the man! I tried to read the manual and was totally confused. Saw the "official" video onYouTube and was still baffled. Then I found you and you saved the day. I join 976 others by thanking you for this video

[jeffx]

Third time coming back to this video! 3 years later still thankful it’s up

[Chromolume]

I've owned this timer for a couple of years now and just gave up on it because I couldn't figure it out … and I'm one of the rare types that actually makes it a point to read the instructions! They were no help. This extremely concise video has explained everything I need to know and I'm starting to use it right away. THANK YOU!

[maryproveaux]

I purchased this timer to turn on my radio to wake me up in the morning (and my neighbors!! haha). Thank you from the bottom of my heart for explaining this, I could not read the tiny instructions. Even if I could, I would have been sooo frustrated!

[DWR]

I had lost the directions and the setup was not intuitive, at least not to me. I was about to give up but decided to give YouTube a shot. Your video was straightforward and very easy to follow. Thanks. Subscribed.

[jfm]

You, sir, should have been consulted on the instruction manual and video for this product. THANK YOU.

[heppcat]

In case nobody has mentioned this, with the exception of using standard time, this unit is identical to the Chicago Electric Digital Timer for Lamps & Appliances sold by Harbor Freight (which uses 24-hour military time) — SKU 95205. They're both probably made by the same manufacturer. Anyway, thank you so very much for taking the time to make this very informative video. It is concise and clear. Thank you for your efforts and good work.

[joemoffitt]

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I KNEW that there had to be an easier way to do this. You are a Godsend.
From one very grateful dyslexic

[bwhite]

Thanks - very helpful. Much better than the written instructions or their video.

[INJURYCOMP]

EXCELLENT!! Thank you for this video! This works for our WOODS programmable timer also. I bought this timer for the CHRISTMAS Tree years ago and, of course, the instructions are not with the timer anymore. Your video was short and on-point! Thanks again! You have a new subscriber!

[NIH]

Incredibly helpful! Thank you. I haven't used this old timer in years and could not figure it out until I found your video.

[alexvega]

Great explanation. Incredibly easy to setup this timer using this video.

[rabidkoalaz]

I can't fully express with word how grateful I am. Thank you for saving so much stress.
