      I use the Defiant 86125 Timer at Christmas. When unplugged, how do you turn the device totally off so the battery is not in use storing the information?

      Rick, it should only hold the programing for 7 days, then it will go completely dead until you charge it again.

        How do I turn off the display to save battery

        Answer This Question

        I dont think there is a way to turn it off. They're on when they leave the factory-hence the charge before using instruction. I also dont think there's a way to change the battery. I've been running my 1st one for over 3 yrs now

        By|Jan 4, 2026

          i have several of these and really like them EXCEPT I cant find out how to turn them completely off either. I just generally let them run down, which seems ridiculous.

            I just discovered this. CharGPT says the battery won't last a year with the display constantly on, even under low current conditions. And it is not designed to be removable. Makes this a single season disposable product, I'm returning them for a refund.

              Debra, you can use the preset buttons listed, or if you want specific times, you push the on time button and select a time, and push the off button and select a time. If you still need help, please give us a call at 1-800-654-8483.

                    Timer worked perfectly to turn on/off my Christmas lights each night at specific times. You can also set it up to run on preset times. Like that the timer has two outlets. There is a reset button to erase any previous programmed times. Designed for outside use, but can also use inside.

                    This is my go to plug timer for summertime pool filtration. They usually last a couple years before replacing.
