Setting the Electrical timer

[mobile2007]

Hi,

Very newbie question. Like to buy a electrical timer to control the lighting duration. Saw those taiyo 24 hrs timer at ntuc. Are they set once or have to set daily ?

Ex. monday set 11am, on for 12 hrs. Do i need to set it again on tues?

Once a timer is set, it will continue to off/on the next day.

So you need to only set it 1 time only

Thanks for the answer.

Thanks for the answer.

Just wanted to point out that IKEA has these analog timers selling at about 2 for $7 or so, near the lighting section. I can't remember the price exactly, the built isn't fantastic but it's a quarter the price.

I'm using those IKEA timers. Works decently but occasionally they fail to turn off so you will have to toggle the switch a little to make it turn off. But you can't complain much about the quality for stuff this cheap

too late, i got one from neighbourhood hardware store for 9.90.

Anyway, thanks.
