Re: [APD] Timers

["S. Hieber" <shieber at yahoo_com>]

The Intermatic DT17C (or DT27C) can run up to 14 on/off
programs per day or 112 or 98 per week respectively.

Has battery back up and the batt easily will last a year or
two if the unit is plugged in most of that time.

Accepts a grounded-plug appliance and 15 amp load.

Cost about $20 on-line. They carry them at Homedepot; the
one near me is currently charging $19.95.

Sometimes can be gotten through amazon for less, sometimes
on ebay.

I've used a number of these and although the lcd screen is
small, they are easy to program, reliable and don't care if
the thunderstorm turned you power off for a while.
