BN-LINK Timer Outlet Short Period Repeat Cycle Intermittent Digital Timer, Interval Timer - Day, Night, or 24 Hour Operation, Programmable Plug-in Timer for Appliances Electrical Outlets 15A/1875W

I wish I had known about this timer sooner. I got it because the control panel on my radiant mixing block died, and I need a temporary fix until the heating man can come replace it. This timer does EXACTLY what I need it to do. It's running on a 9 minute on, 15 minute off repeating cycle which is keeping my home warm without causing the boiler to continuously run. This timer is super easy to program and is functioning exactly as I hoped. It's well-built, is a good size with nice readable LED digits, and is very versatile, allowing you to set a repeating schedule fo hours, minutes, or seconds. It also has modes for day and night use. I thought it was a little pricey at first, but since I got it, I couldn't be happier with it, price an all. It's saving me money in wasted heating fuel until the heating guys can get to me, which may be more than a month.

What a game changer! I needed a way to power up a device for 40 minutes, every 2 hours, all night long. I was getting up every 2 hours to cycle the device for 40 minutes, then go back to bed after I unplugged it. I was not getting any rest at all. I was exhausted with all the sleep disturbance. I finally researched and found this repeat-cycle timer. The first day I used it, I was wary and not relaxed about it. But to my delight, it performed perfectly and has been cycling for 4 days now. The unit itself is easy to use, easy to program and gives a bright LED read out. The On/Off timers count down so you can see the status any time you look at it. It works completely silently. It's small enough use the second plug of a standard outlet if you must. It is very easy to use and attractive. I only hope it lasts...When and if it fails, I will update my review. Fingers crossed. I am sleeping through the night without worry. The only caveat is to make sure the UL rating on what you are trying to power does not exceed the capability of the unit. Recommended.

Using it for air exchange fan in a mushroom growing tent. Works very well and easy to make adjustments to 'tune' fresh air exchange as needed. I've been using this for 6+ months with complete success.

This is a really good repeat timer and I highly recommend it. I use it to turn a hot water recirculator on for 1 minute and off for 13 minutes since it’s designed for an apartment building and pumps way too much water for our home. I also bought the BN-LINK analog repeat timer, but much prefer this one. I’ll be returning the analog timer and buying a spare digital timer in case this one fails. The analog timer worked OK, but had several problems that were fixed with this one. The analog knobs were too easily moved when installing the timer, whereas the digital setup option is simple and intuitive. Plus the digital readout tells you which is counting down, ON or OFF, and how long before it turns to the other state. The analog timer didn’t have such an indication. I looked at the instructions and decided to try it on my own and that worked. Hit SET once to enter setup mode. Hit SET again to go from HH:MM to MM:SS for the first setting, then hit SET each time you’re happy with the numbers, etc. I have it in series with a Z-Wave switch that is set to turn on at 6:30 AM and off at 11:30 PM. If we want hot water during the night, all I have to do is use TotalConnect 2.0 to turn on the Z-Wave switch, which automatically starts this timer in its 1 minute on mode. It then goes to 12 minutes off. If I want to save energy, I then need to turn it off with the Z-Wave scene turning it back on at 6:30 AM.

The unit gets a 3.5 from me because the instructions don't really help getting to the off timer. I have a house fan I want turned on and off but had a devil of a time getting to the minutes off setting. After I set the 'on' timer I couldn't get to the 'off' timer. Whenever I hit set to go into 'off' mode it went into the 'on' setting again and kept counting down, and when touched, reset itself and began to count down again. I set the 'on' to 00.00 and basically & just 'banged' buttons til I got to the off minutes setting. BUT, the unit works like a charm. On for 10 minutes, off for 7. I just pray to the universe I won't have to change the setting soon. One buyer had some instructions, which may help others out. Or, if others can tell me how to program the unit I would appreciate it. Thanks

Works fine, just what I needed.

Needed a repeating timer to control "fog machine" for halloween decorations. Fog machine I have runs continuously and thus runs out of liquid to fast. This device was intuitively easy to set (no instructions). Set it for 3 seconds ON and 12 sec off (which gives the desired effect of fog and keeps machine hot enough to blow more fog when it has AC voltage again and comes back on). Was concerned that when this timer lost it's power, would it remember the last settings it had, or would you need to reset it. The answer is YES, it does remember it's last settings when unplugged. Like the digital display. This repeating timer does get slightly "warm" on the right side. Nothing I don't think to be worried about however. It is nicely built and hopefully will last several years at least. You can hear a relay inside the unit when it toggles on/off. Wish it would have been little less money, but with the quality and since it was exactly what I was needing, it is worth the price paid.

This timer was perfect for what I needed it for. I use it for my plant cloning, im able to program the timer to as little as 1 second on, to 2 seconds off if needed, and any combination needed. Im able to have my cloner running for 10min on and 30 min off, what I like about this timer is you dont need your programming time to fall into the 1hr mark, meaning you can have odd timing, such as 5min on and 43min off, should you choose.

Used for my hydroponics growing tower. I needed a timer that I could set for repeated cycles and this worked excellent. I had it set for 12 minutes off, then 30 seconds on between the hours of 8 am and 10pm. It’s hard to find a timer that you can set up this way but this one work’s awesome.

I have my block heater, oil pan heater and battery blanket plug into this with a 3 way plug in -50 yukon weather. No problems yet.

Works fine

We've been using this cycle timer for over a year at our off grid AirBnB property in northern Ontario. We built it into a weather proof housing that is mounted to the side of the house. Its wired to the filter pump in our wood fired hot tub. We have it turn on for 7 mins every 8 mins during the winter which helps prevent freezing of the plumbing under the tub. We change the duration in the summer months to longer on, longer off. Its been working great all along. We bought a 2nd one to have as a spare.

I couldn't be more pleased with the timer. Easy to program and even holds your settings when the power goes out. The light sensor is very accurate when in day or night mode. I would buy again!
