Review on Plusmart Outdoor Digital Timer With Waterproof Light Sensor, Dusk To Dawn Control For Electrical Outlets (3 Pack + 6 Inch Extension Cord, 1/2HP) by Michael Caste

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Failed after 1.5 yrs. needs reprogrammed after power outage

I have now had 2 of the 3 go out. The last one to die makes a scary buzzing sound when plugged in. The 2nd one to go out lasted 1.5 yrs. The description says mechanical life is 1 yr. That is about right when you average the 2 that have now died on me. It was only set to go on at dark inside my house for the year. I guess if you are ok having to reprogram it every time the power goes out and you don’t expect them to last for much more than a year, this is a good choice for you.

Pros
  • they work fine
Cons
  • The timer's instructions are not available in multiple languages, making it difficult for non-English speakers to install and program
