The LED Mini Wash and Brush Timer At-a-Glance: 2 timing modes for washing hands or brushing teeth Fun and effective way to improve personal hygiene Wireless unit is battery operated Mounts quickly and easily 2-year limited warranty

The LED light flashes green for the duration appropriate to each task, then turns red to signal when the time's up.

Two Timing Modes for Effective Personal Hygiene
Doctors and dentists agree that washing hands for 20 seconds at a time and brushing teeth for two minutes at a time are some of the best things you can do for your hygiene. Luckily, the Intellitec LED Mini Wash and Brush Timer helps you keep on top of these frequent tasks.

The timer has a large green LED that flashes for 20 seconds for washing your hands or two minutes for brushing your teeth, and the light switches to red when your time is up. The Intellitec Mini Wash and Brush Timer is perfect for kids who resist brushing and for adults who need a reminder to slow down and get those hands clean.

Simple Operation Encourages Use
Just press the Intellitec LED Mini Wash and Brush Timer's hand or tooth icon, and the green flashing will start. The icon lights up in blue so that you know which one you've chosen. The green LED flashes more quickly as you get closer to the end of your time, and the red LED lets you know when you are finished. If you push the wrong button, just press the reset button that is conveniently located at the bottom of the unit.

Quick and Easy Wireless Installation
No wires and no plugs make this versatile LED timer an easy addition to any room in the house. The Intellitec Mini Wash and Brush Timer is powered by three 'AAA' batteries and mounts quickly to mirrors, walls, or tile. The mounting plate fastens with hook-and-loop tape, screws, or suction cups, and the timer slides into the plate for a secure fit.

LED Technology Lasts Longer
The Mini Wash and Brush Timer features super-bright LEDs that last longer and shine more brilliantly than traditional lighting. You'll save yourself the cost of replacing light bulbs, and the convenient LEDs will shine brightly for a long time to come.

Dimensions and Warranty Information
The Intellitec LED Mini Wash and Brush Timer is only 2.0 inches tall by 2.2 inches wide. It is backed by a two-year limited warranty.

We have used several different timers for brushing teeth. Finally someone came up with a timer that will work without the help of an adult. My kids ages 6 and 7, LOVE this product. It is so easy for them to use. It mounts with suction cups right onto the mirror. We have had it for 3 months and have had no problems. My kids teeth are much cleaner after brushing-hopefully no cavities at the next visit to the dentist!

3.0 out of 5 stars I love it while it worked too!, June 21, 2008

I was so excited when I found this item in the store! I thought this would be the perfect way to get my kids excited about brushing and help them brush long enough to get the job done correctly! (BONUS: It helped them wash there hands long enough to actually get some dirt off!) It was wonderful for our kids.

However, I bought two, one for each bathroom. One of them did not work from the start. I was going to take it back to the store when I went back. This week (we've owned it about 3 weeks now) the second one that was working stopped working! I'm so frustrated! They had a GREAT idea! They just couldn't put the right parts in it to function well. I wish they had put more effort into doing the job right, because it was a great help to my family when it worked!

Pros:
- NO BEEPING!! It won't wake up other people if someone is in the bathroom using the timer.

- It's an electronic thing which gets my kids TOTALLY involved and excited.

CONS:

- It wasn't built to last! Cheepest construction inside. My guess is the problem is loose wires inside. I don't understand why they can't put more effort into putting the right parts inside correctly!

Summary:
Please make a decent product before sending it out!!! I hope someone can make one that works with all the same easy and fun for kids to use features!

Packaging & concept are great but after 2 days tooth button did not function properly and reset button got stuck. I really wanted this to work as looks like best way to make sure kids brush or wash long enough. Maybe they will improve future versions. At least it was inexpensive. Not worth the $ to send back for a replacement that quite likely will fail.
