5.0 out of 5 stars CAN set exact time!, December 4, 2006

With a little effort and patience, it's easy to set these to an exact time (within about a minute).

(1) Insert a red pin to shut off the timer at a round hour, about an hour or two ahead of the current time. (If you're doing this at 2:30, for example, set it to shut off around 4:00.)

(2) Advance the wheel past the current time, so the timer thinks it's something like 3:30 or 3:45.

(3) Wait for the timer to shut off, and then immediately unplug it.

(4) Plug the timer back in at exactly the time you set it for (4:00 in this example).

At this point it should retain the correct time until the next time you move the timer, have a power outage, or need to reset the clock for daylight saving time. In my experience the various pin slots on the timer are accurate to within about a minute, and the timer itself might lose or gain as much as a minute per month. But that's still much better precision than you can get without this technique.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works as advertised, March 12, 2006

I bought the special where you get four in a pack. It's very easy to set up and use. Only drawback is if electricity goes, all your timings are off by the duration of the outage.

However, after a couple weeks one stopped working. This wasn't so much of a setback for me as I was only using 3 of the 4 at the time. I just took the green & red hooks and used them on one of the other timers. This allowed me to add an extra on/off setting for that timer.

This little timer works just as it is supposed to. Easy set up. Select off and on times and it does the job.
