Limitless Energy Efficiency and Home Safety Options
With the Woods 59377 Seven-Day Digital Timer, the energy efficiency and home safety options are many. For example, set appliances like your space heater to turn off after a programmed interval, so you won't have to worry about forgetting to turn it off manually when you leave the house. Or set this timer to turn lamps throughout the house on and off while you're away on vacation.

Works with a Variety of Appliances and Electronics
When you plug any appliance or electrical device into this timer, the 59377 conducts electricity through it; it can also cut off the supply of electricity at certain pre-programmed times. When used regularly and properly, it can help improve the safety of all appliances around the house, because they can be timed to automatically switch off. You can also use the 59377 to turn off all the electronic devices that use electricity--even in standby mode--including cell-phone chargers, iPod docks, laser printers, and more.

User-Friendly Features for a Safe, Energy Efficient Home
Easy to set up and program, the 59377 offers the convenience of accurate, to-the-minute digital settings, a sleep countdown function (great for turning off lamps after you fall asleep), and a random setting option, which can turn lights on at unpredictable times to make your home appear occupied when it isn't. It also has a rechargeable battery backup, so you won't have to worry about losing your programmed settings in a power outage.

Eight Settings per Day
The 59377 provides eight different settings per day (or 56 per week). Two outlets let you plug in more than one appliance at a time and use the timer to control both. During daylight saving, the timer adjusts automatically. Additionally, a manual override button makes it easy to turn off a particular setting at any time without erasing the program.

The Woods 59377 Seven-Day Digital Timer is backed by a one-year limited warranty for manufacturing defects.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best timer for the price, March 24, 2009

This review is from: Woods 59377 Digital 7-Day Lamp/Appliance Timer with 2 Outlets, Up to 8 On/Off Settings per day and Battery Back Up (Tools & Home Improvement)

NOTICE: For those in doubt about using the bottom wall outlet, please view my added photos above.

This timer is well-worth the price.

The majority of outlet timers only handle 2-prong devices, and even then, they can't switch much of an electrical load. The few 3-prong timers are either mechanical or, if digital, don't handle much current, have batteries to constantly replace, or are expensive on a per-outlet basis. We liked the Woods':

- 2 grounded (3-prong) plugs
- 1875 Watts (The timer, timer box and its leaflet show 1875 watts for BOTH Resistive and Tungsten, but Amazon and the online manual say otherwise)
- Self-charging rechargeable battery
- Manual bypass button
- Noiseless operation
- Up to 8 ON/OFF daily cycles for each of 7 days (allows timed events to cover sets of days, too)
- Daylight savings hour shift (just press two buttons simultaneously)

It also has a few features we won't currently need like randomized and countdown ON/OFF and the ability to cycle power to a minute's resolution.

I've tested this timer on our washer, freezer, basement dehumidifier, and our large air purifier. It easily handled all with no problems.

Other impressions: The picture shown above is accurate, but the rubber "Manual" button looks like a slider switch. Also, the days of the week arrows don't quite align between the display and its housing. The unit is solid and when plugged in to the upper of two wall outlets, allows our 3 prong (grounded) power strip to use the free outlet (a somewhat tight fit, though). Strangely, there is no mention of a warranty anywhere with the product. It is made in China.

UPDATE: One of the three timers we received stopped working. Amazon overnighted a replacement. The one that went bad now had a black carbonized piece in the bottom of the housing.

One thing to note about the Manual button: It cycles through 4 modes (manual on and off and automatic on and off), A single press won't necessarily toggle it to override its current setting if you are trying to get something turned on or off. The modes make sense and are shown on the display, but it wasn't what we initially expected from a manual override button.

The timers work very well and it is nice to have the battery power the clock and the programming when unplugged. We like the durable feel of the housing, too. Despite one early failure, we believe this is still the best timer to be found for anywhere near the price.

NOTE: The Intermatic DT620CH appears to be the best alternative if this is not in stock, but when you visit their company website, they claim their timer will only switch 500W (1/3 hp) of Tungsten (lighting) and 1800W Resistive and Inductive (motor). Also, it uses two LR44 batteries, which are not rechargeable.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great First 2 Months -- Then Not So Good, May 17, 2010

Initially I thought this was an awsome product as it worked flawlessly. I was able to setup several different on and off settings for each weekday and weekend days. After the first 2 months I notice all the display locations were completely on so you couldn't read anything; until it was unpluged and it worked fine again. I reset it back to default, reconfigured all the settings and plugged it back in. Once again every display item was on so you couldn't read anything. It wasn't really a big deal since it was still working. Then after a couple more months it stopped turning things on and off. Now it's completely useless. I did get several good months out of this unit but I was expecting years...

This review is from: Woods 59377 Digital 7-Day Lamp/Appliance Timer with 2 Outlets, Up to 8 On/Off Settings per day and Battery Back Up (Tools & Home Improvement)

I bought this Woods 7-Day Digital Timer to control warmrails (bath towel warming) in the master bathroom in my home. Without the timer the warmrails worked 24 hours a day, which cost about $17 per month or $200 per year. The timer keeps the warmrails powered only when we may need to use warm towels, i.e., early in the morning on Monday-Friday, early in the evening on Sunday-Thursday, later in the morning on Saturday and Sunday, later in the evening on Friday and Saturday. The rest of the time nobody needs warm towels, and the warmrails are powered off, which saves about 70% in electricity costs, i.e., it saves $140 per year. Considering how little I paid for this timer, the savings in electric bills have already paid off for the purchase of this timer. The internal clock in this timer is very accurate, and, what is most impressive, it keeps ticking and remembers all settings during power outages, which take place rather often in the area where I live.
