I'm not growing anything, but this video helped me with a similar timer plug that I'm using for the pet room.

No problem. Short sweet and to the point! I'm not a fan of those long videos myself.

Great. I hadn't used mine in a couple years and forgot which setting was timer on. Thanks

Thanks for this video man. Just watched one before your video and they took forever and didn't explain jack! So thank you for the info really helped out a lot.

Huh?! he said put the timer on "ON" and plug it in??? No! You put the timer on "TIMER" position to apply the selected time. Pffff.... On ON it will stay on all the time like you could use to temporary suspend the schedule, you just move it on ON position. But when you want to put it back on the selected schedule, you move it to TIMER. You're welcome!

So i'm confused on what to start the dial on So are the numbers on the dials?
Per minute and hours. Do I put the number one where the arrow is? And just click around it for the number of hours I want it on.

I have a question.Can you make this timer?
Come on and off every 15 minutes.i have a refrigerator that will not shut off.

[davidwaugh]

Thank you! Mine came with no instructions.

[tempus]

Why did you set it to on rather than timer option?

[jeffwolf]

you cant use these timers for ballest due to the demand upon turn on is so great it will burn out these fast . i learned after 3 went out in 1 month before i got the real ballast timmer like just shy of$100 too

[astridcacciatore]
