      My Christmas tree lights do not have an on/off button....I just plug the electrical cord into the wall. Will this timer work for a device that does not have an on/off switch?

          How do I set my timer
          ByFeb 11, 2017

          Answer This Question

          Turn the arrow so it is pointing to the current time. Push down on the tabs corresponding to the times you want the timer ON. When I purchased my timer, all tabs were already pressed down, so you may need to lift up unwanted times, depending upon how yours is currently set. You can also change it to go on manually when you turn it on, as opposed to automatically.

              Hi Paul, Great question and thank you for your interest in our 15119 timer . 1. Locate the segments around on the outer edge of the timer’s dial. These segments, each representing 30 minutes, can be pushed down from the edge of the dial (try using the tip of a pen or pencil). Conversely, segments that have been pushed down can be easily pushed back up by hand. Be sure all segments are pushed up before programming. Select a time period (or periods) you want the lamp turned on, then push down ALL the segments that fall on or within that time period. For example, to have the timer turn a lamp on at 10PM and off at 2AM, push down the segments representing 10PM and 2AM, and ALL the segments in between (See Figure 1). You may need to turn the dial clockwise to access the desired segments. 2. Rotate the timer’s dial clockwise until the pointer on the face of the dial points to the current time of day. Note: Nighttime hours (from 6:30PM to 6:30AM) are highlighted with a black background. 3. Set master switch to the TIMER ON position. See Figure 2 4. Plug the timer into an electrical outlet convenient to the lamp to be controlled. 5. Plug the lamp into the outlet on the side of the timer. Turn the lamp’s switch on for automatic control. The timer will not turn the lamp on if the lamp’s switch is off. The lamp will now turn on and off at the times you have set.. If you have any further questions, we encourage you to respond or contact out Customer Support through phone or email. Thank you, ByJasco Tech Support(Manufacturer)

                Is the plug on the timer that goes into the wall a two prong plug? The plug that you can't see in any of the pictures.

                  Help me set the timer. So if I set the current time so that the little arrow points right at the 8 for 8 o'clock, and I depress the pin right opposite the 8, I am guessing the timer might turn itself on when it reaches the depressed pin, which might be 15 minutes before the hour. Does that sound about right? And I should take that into consideration in setting the time?

                  push the buttons down to turn power on, up for off. set the timer for the times you want it to go on and off. plug the timer in, plug in the device to the timer, look at your cell phone, clock or watch, set the same time by spinning the timer dial to that time. if you want great accuracy of set time wait and do this on a hour, so you can point the arrow at that big number.

                    Great unit for the cost
                    This unit is slimline. Much smaller than units I've bought in the past. Easy to use and also quiet, unlike older models I have that are kinda loud. Nice

                      Perfect for my application
                      I have two sections of kitchen cabinets and I purchased rope lighting for the top of both. The lines easily dropped down to an electrical outlet but needed a timer to make it easy and better looks for the area in the kitchen. The timers were small and unobtrusive and worked great.

                      Does what it needs to do...
                      The product was simple and did what it was meant to do. I had bought them for our Christmas lights and for a couple of lamps around the house for security (also so that it wouldn't be so dark in the house when we get home from work!)...

                      Skip it.
                      The timer setting does not activate the lights without toggling it back and forth to on. Defeats the purpose of the timer. Does turn off when it’s supposed to sometimes.
