Review on ENERLITES Countdown Timer Switch For Bathroom Fans And Household Lights, 1-5-10-15-20-30 Min Settings With Manual Override, Always On Blue LED, Neutral Wire Required, UL Listed, HET06A, White, 2 Pack by David Carmody

Great switch - neutral (white) wire necessary

I'm using this switch to run a bathroom exhaust fan. I tried two timers previously and neither worked. It turns out that if the switch doesn't provide a neutral wire then there is a minimum current that has to run through the switch in order to run the timer, usually about 40w.So - if your switch isn't working or it cycles on/off constantly then you need a switch with a neutral wire like this one.

Pros
  • In wall countdown timer automatically turns OFF all types of ventilation fans, ceiling fans, motors and lights including LEDs/CFLs at the time you set. Save energy and never leave the lights and fan on longer than needed.
Cons
  • Potential for user error in setting the timer
