Easy install - my new review

Easy to install and use (I had neutral white wire available in box), solid feel. I had to buy dual wall plate with wider opening on one side, I would imagine is common issue, had to throw away one that came with it. Cost is a little higher than I would have wanted for bath fan convenience, but I'm not sorry I bought. There is rather bright persistent blue led in dark to help find switch, if that's a consideration that you sometimes want pitch dark bathroom (e.g. for testing glow in the dark…

Pros
  • Highly reliable with a long lifespan
Cons
  • May not be ideal for those with allergies, as accumulation of dust may cause malfunctions

Works Great best in my review

At first, could not determine the power line for the fan since the wires were both black, but switching the wires worked. Other than that, the installation was easy. The timer works great, and often times we forget to turn off the fan but with the timer, the fan turns off automatically. No more hearing the fan running all day and night.

Pros
  • Enables you to choose the timing based on your preference
Cons
  • May not work well in large spaces with multiple lights and/or fans

Great for teens on my review.

All of my family members are awful about turning the bathroom exhaust fans off. Sometimes they will run through the night even.wasting electricity and making the motor hot. This is the BEST investment. They work like advertised and I love the options of picking the time limits.

Pros
  • Reduces the carbon footprint of the household
Cons
  • Possible risk of overloading the circuit if several appliances are used simultaneously

A must have product for your home

I installed these in all of my bathrooms. No no more fans running for needles hours. I am a handyman and suggest them to all of my clients. I’ve installed several of them. The only problem someone might have is swapping the red and black wires. You do have to connect the red wire to the load wire( the hot wire coming from the panel) not the feed wire going to your fan.

Pros
  • Improves the functionality of the bathroom fan or household lights
Cons
  • Not ideal for those looking for a more traditional or classic look

Good timer but very bright LEDs

Decent timer, but don't put in in a bedroom since the blue LEDs are insanely bright and can't be disabled. The master bath in my house has its fan switch outside the bathroom on the bedroom wall, and I had to cover the LEDs with three layers of darkening film before the bedroom wasn't washed out in blue light. The other one is fine in the guest bathroom and makes an OK nightlight.Other than that it works well, but I find the increments are a little odd. I'd prefer having a 60 option instead of…

Pros
  • Offers various timing options ranging from 1 to 30 minutes
Cons
  • Requires manual override to turn the lights/fans off before the timer goes off

LEDs fail after a short time

I've installed these in my home and others. I like the idea of a timer so the bathroom fan doesn't stay on forever. After about 2 years, every one of the times has at least 1 LED that no longer lights. Seems the longevity of this produc is not very long. I would give 5 stars for the produc except for the failures.

Pros
  • Saves on your bulb replacement and maintenance costs
Cons
  • May not be a practical solution for rooms with multiple doors or entrances/exits

need four wires to make this works and the switch is kind of stiff but everything else is good. The big white button on the bottom if keep pressuring for about 3 second it would stay on permanent, nice feature.

Pros
  • Makes the bathroom or household more convenient to use
Cons
  • Potential for users to accidentally press the timer function instead of the on/off switch

Works Good - Hope It Lasts Long Time

So far I am very pleased with this timer. Like many others, I wish the LED lights weren't so bright, but I'm not marking it down for that. I was aware before I ordered it, and I wanted a nightlight where I installed it anyway. The installation instructions were spot on and I didn't have any problems at all. To install this timer, you must know how to turn off electrical power, and test to insure it is off. Also, you must know how to identify the hot, neutral, load, and ground wires in the…

Pros
  • Provides peace of mind as you know the fans or lights are not left on accidentally
Cons
  • May not work well in rooms with high ceilings or difficult-to-reach outlets

Does what it needs to do!

Works as intended. Bought this item for bathroom fans. I had bought some a few years back via amazon and when time came to build our new home I wanted to use what I knew worked. I bought the 2pack, but I don't think it was like for like to the one I bought previously. Only thing that was a bit frustrating was it has a max fan of 30mins. That was a bit disappointing at first, but is more than enough now that they are in use. Be careful to buy one that is compatible with exhaust fan! I bought…

Pros
  • Does not interfere with the wiring in the house
Cons
  • Possibility of timer malfunctions, which could cause the lights/fans to switch off unexpectedly

Work perfectly: my feedback

Got two of these for the fans in my bathrooms, and they have been working perfectly for a few months now. Very easy to use, and no mo

Pros
  • Features a manual override that allows you to keep the fan or light on
Cons
  • Possibility of unsettling clicks and sounds when timer switches on/off

Great Timer Switch, Great Value

These are VERY well made! They do exactly as advertised. There are similar switches available, but these are the best value per money spent. Please note, you can turn the fan on without using the timer function by holding the large switch down for a few seconds.

Pros
  • Takes up minimal space on the wall
Cons
  • Possibility of loud ticking noise from internal timer

Good Fan timer.Easy to install

I have long wanted fan timers in our two bathrooms because we tend to forget the fans they run all day long, so i couldn't resist this deal when I saw it. The timers came attractively packaged with their wall plates and fasteners and wire nuts, so it was a simple swap with the existing switches and they work as expected.There are six buttons that correspond to the amount of time to run the fan. Simply push the one you want and walk away knowing that you did your part to clear the air without…

Pros
  • Switches & Dimmers
Cons
  • May not be aesthetically pleasing for some users

Cool timer, with lights. Tricky install.

The product is great,Just as shown in pictures. Nice bright lights to show which button is selected. Hooked up to bathroom exhaust fan, replacing existing two-way/single pole switch. I found it a bit tricky to install (that means I had to read the directions CAReFULLY, and about 3 times, despite a fair amount of electrical experience). Picked for the shorter time implements (1,5 mins) - which works well.

Pros
  • Tools & Home Improvement
Cons
  • Lacks simplicity compared to traditional light switch

Blue night light for my opinion

Works great. Has blue LEDs that stay lit even after the time has went off. Not too much of a distraction in our arrangement but does light a small bathroom enough to see at night. Could be a distraction in other arrangements.

Pros
  • Timer Switches
Cons
  • Requires small learning curve to adjust to this switch

blue leds are too bright

The switch wirken great, but the blue leds are very bright and light up a large bathroom. The are like a bright night light. Sorry can’t recommend for this reason, may return

Pros
  • Can be fitted with a large assortment of faceplates for customization
Cons
  • Potential for users to accidentally leave the timer on, leading to unnecessary energy usage

Great for Bathroom Fan

Should ne easy to install. Has some extra length of wire to work with. One thing to note is the depth of the switch is significatly more than a standard switch. The elecrician had left an large excess of cable in the slot so i had to do a lot of work to make it all fit. After installation it has worked great.

Pros
  • Perfect for those who forget to switch off lights or fans
Cons
  • Not ideal for those looking for a switch with smart home compatibility

They work great. I use one for my bathroom fan

I bought three. They work great. I use one for my bathroom fan, the other two for exterior lights. The only drawback are the blue LED lights. They are super bright. The one in my bathroom, I use as a nightlight. They sell one with no LED lights but I could not find them on revain. Easy to install.

Pros
  • Electrical
Cons
  • Very disappointed with this purchase. Some were defective.

Quick delivery, easy install

I ordered the timer to replace the standard switch installed by the builder. I've done these before so the install was about 15 minutes. I was happy with the speed of delivery and the quality of the product.

Pros
  • Has a user-friendly design that is easy to install
Cons
  • Requires thorough installation process that may be difficult for some users
