ENERLITES Countdown Timer Switch for Bathroom Fans and Lights, 1-30 Min, Neutral Wire Required, UL Listed, White

Seems to work well, mostly. Sometimes there are issues getting the buttons to register and you need to press them multiple times to start the timer. The blue LEDs are bright and can serve as a dim night light in a bathroom. I have these in each of my bathrooms. They are very stylish with our room decor. They run a bit warm to the touch. I am guessing that it's some resistor in the circuit that they are running hot for current limiting or voltage reduction. I used these to replace similar switches from a different manufacturer that ended up burning out at about the same time in my bathrooms. I took them both apart and found a couple of parts that were running warm/hot, as the circuit board and the parts had charring. I repair electronics and these were beyond repair. The replacement parts were more than a new switch costs. Pay attention to the variety of timing options so that they fit your needs. Similar switches from other manufacturers have different timings that you may or may not prefer. I liked this one the best. Easy, standard installation as any other light switch. You may or may not be able to install these yourself, due to building codes in your area.

Installed in an office bathroom where it gets daily use. It's been a year and a half now and works great. I definitely recommend it. Note that it is very large so if you have smaller older junction boxes, it is a real pain to install (and sparkies might charge more for that).

I installed the timer a few days ago. Here are my first impressions: 1. It works well, the six selection times, from 1 to 30 minutes, are good for a bathroom fan. 2. The white color matches my Lutron switch and wall plate. 3. It was easy to install. It is a four-wire installation. Ground, Neutral, Hot, and Load. Not all switch boxes include a neutral wire. If you do not have a neutral wire wire, you might be able to get away with connecting the neutral wire to ground, but I am not sure that is legal, and it may trip a GFCI. It would be best to not use it without a neutral in your box. 4. It has six large buttons to select one of six different times. There is also a large button to turn on the last time selected, or to shut it off early. 5. It looks okay, but it lacks elegance, (I cannot explain why). 6. It has blue lights, which are on all the time. That may be fine in some applications. In by master bathroom, I find it to be too bright. If you want the switch to double as a night light this may be fine for you. For a night light, I prefer a softer color, like red, orange, or 3000K LED.

Works great, solve the problem of lights being left on.

Installed these in my bathrooms for the fan. Easy to install, switches are a bit bulky so might be tight with your wires in the box. Work great and house hasn’t burned down yet. The indicator lights are pretty bright, they are almost like a nightlight for me and night. Did wish the indicator lights turned off after a set time but still great switches.

So far good product. I bought a pair to control exhaust fans in bathrooms. Installation is no different than other devices you might install such as a dimmer. Black to hot, white to neutral,green to ground and the red connects to the load, which in my case is the cieling fan. The switch works fine. Just select your time. It will turn it off so you won't needlessly suck out heated or cooled air and waste electricty unnecessarily. To me it's well worth the cost.

The switch does what it is supposed to do. It has timer settings for each time. However, I have three complaints that prevent me from buying more to replace all the fan switches in my house and from granting a four- or five-star review. 1. The blue LEDs are BRIGHT! They are brighter than the nightlight in my girls' bathroom. There doesn't appear to be any way to calm down the brightness. For this reason alone I am considering returning the two switches that I bought. 2. They are not intuitive to use. One would think that one would press the button for the amount of time you'd like the timer to count down. You want the device to turn off in five minutes? Press the 5-min button. Wrong. You do press the button for the time you want (which turns on the super-bright blue LED next to the button, confirming your press), but you then have to press the large button at the bottom to turn the device on. Also, there is a super-bright blue LED light next to the large button. When the device is off, the super-bright blue LED next to this button is on. When the device is in countdown mode, the super-bright blue LED is OFF. The logic is backwards, and if the switch is controlling an unseen/unheard device, the user would assume they were controlling it incorrectly. 3. Finally, because of the way the large button at the bottom is used, there is no simple bypass on/off mode. You HAVE to use a timer. In many instances, this is probably just fine, but if you have an application where you might want to occasionally override the timer, this is not your switch. If I had designed the switch, I would have used much less bright LEDs, and I would likely have selected a green color. I would have designed the switch to enter countdown mode as soon as you pressed the time you wanted. I would have designed the big button at the bottom to be a simple on/off switch with no timer. And I would have reversed the logic of the LED on the big switch so that the LED would be lit when the circuit was active, and off when the circuit was off.

4.5: I installed these fan timers in three places in my house in 2018. Two of them are still working well, one of them stopped working altogether almost exactly 8 years later after daily use. I would give half a star off because the blue lights are too bright for a simple nightlight. All in all, I repurchased the same device for its great functionality and 8+ year longevity on daily use.

Arrive brand New, haven't installed all however easy to install and looks nice. Cheaper than buying at local home store, cost around $28. I would recommend seller

This delayer is very good and solves the problem of me often forgetting to turn off the bathroom ventilator fan. The blue indicator light can play the role of indicating the switch position at night. Much cheaper than physical stores.

Looked high & low for a reasonably priced ivory bathroom fan timer control switch. This seems to fit the bill just right. What I love most about it is you select the time to run, & then just use the on/off after that over & over again to control it. And really, some people have gone on about the brightness of the 2 blue lights that's on this model: 0 to 30 minutes, that you can't turn off. But, I really don't find it all that bright. They have another one from 0 to 4hrs. that you can program the lights off if it's really going to bother you. I called the company before buying to find out the depth it sits in the electrical box, as I couldn't find the info here, or even on the manufacturers web site. I'll share it here, as the courteous young man on the end of the line was kind enough to measure it being 1.5 inches/3.81 cm deep from the setting ears to the back/bottom of the switch. It fit without any problems & room behind it to spare in the electrical box. Also, yes you need a neutral wire to make it work properly, but this isn't an issue if wired between the circuit breaker & the fan it's going to control, meaning, a power in black(power)/white(neutral)/ground to the switch & a power out black(load)/white(neutral)/ground from the switch to the fan. If the switch is after the fan on the circuit & at the end of that run then you'll need a black/red/white/ground to control the fan & for this switch to function properly. If not practical to change the wiring if the latter is the installation then a mechanical/spring wind up is your better option which in my case, this switch has replaced.

Los utilicé para los extractores de baños, usados como timer. Traen piloto que se mantiene encendido siempre.

El producto funciona bien, pero veo que el precio ha aumentado 3 veces en las últimas semanas.
