3.0 out of 5 stars Problem with "on" clip, August 3, 2010

The first unit I bought the "on" clip wouldn't turn the power on. The off clip functioned fine.

Sent first unit back to Amazon as defective with no return problem.

Received the replacement unit and had the same problem.

Decided to try and fix the problem myself.

The "on" clip needed to be about a 1/8 of an inch lower to push the lever on. So I modified the "on" clip and it now works fine.

Manufacturer should check their tolerances.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Macho Macho Man Timer, August 31, 2010

I needed a timer for the lights in horses' covered pens. The electricians first installed a smaller, electronic model with a plastic case. That same day, we had a massive rainstorm, and the next day, the display had some condensation inside, and the display was messed up (although the lights still turned on & off). The electricians replaced it with this model, and I'm pretty sure I could turn the hose on it and it'd still be okay.

I've had to use pliers to loosen/tighten the pegs that turn the lights on & off, but that's not a big deal. It's simple to set the time and relatively simple to set the on/off periods.

And there's a lever that can be used to turn the lights on/off manually.

I feel much more comfortable having something like this exposed to the weather than the original electronic one.

I purchased this as a replacement for the timer I have on my pool filter. Easy to remove the punch outs and install. It is water tight, so no worries there. Saving a little green on "being green" by only running half the day and not 24/7.
