Review on ⌛️ Reliable and Versatile GE Heavy-Duty 7-Day Digital Box Timer Switch: Tamper Resistant, Battery Backup, and Universal Voltage – Perfect for Pool Pumps, Water Heaters, and More! by Joshua Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice upgrade for my pool pump but short lived

Looks good and works great so far. I use it to start a pool pump and expect years of reliable performance, unlike my mechanical timer that had a clock motor failure. With digital clocks, this problem should not occur here. The only thing that bothers me is the poor contrast of the LCD. Barely legible in direct sunlight. Maybe they should switch it to a color LCD in future models, e.g. B. Bright white on a blue or black background. Overall I am very happy with the purchase. *Update: Turned off for the winter and now when the unit is turned on the LCD has failed and the display is unreadable. So for me it's like dead. I can't even program the time let alone the schedule. *Update 2: Turned out it only needed a full charge as the switches were off in the winter. The display works perfectly again.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Good but not great
