HBN Countdown Timer Plug, Energy Saving Timer Switch with Repeat Function, 15/30 Min 1/2/4/6 Hour Run Down Timer Socket, 1 Pack

Product Information

With a 2400w maximum load this unit could operate forty 60w lamps. So you`ll be well within the operating limits. This must be the easiest plug in timer to operate. There’s just one button to press! The single on/off button cycles through the countdown timers and sets them running too. Even if you’re a complete technophobe, this shouldn’t be difficult to master. You can set countdown timers from 15 minutes all the way up to eight hours. I wasn't able to figure out how to get it to accept a status inquiry message and set the countdown in a single message (if you can point me to some documentation on creating dashboard nodes I'd really appreciate it), but in those cases there would be a conflict with the payload anyway. All of this is controlled via a single button, which is situated right below the countdown time options. This kind of one-touch convenience is always a big plus in my book.

Can I use this product to switch the lights off after a few hours? - Yes, that is its main function.If you want to get the most out of your bathroom exhaust fan, you will want to get a timer switch for it. As its name suggests, a wall switch of this type allows a homeowner to select a preset time after which the bathroom fan will turn off automatically, and, in that way, save you some money on the electricity bill. Without a doubt, the best bathroom exhaust fan should be paired with the best bathroom fan timer switch. I want to use this unit to switch four LED driveway lights, total combined load is about 8W, but have heard that some units don`t work with such low loads. Do you think that it will work okay in this application? When true, active and paused timers will be restored to the correct state and time on Home Assistant startup and restarts. If an active timer was supposed to end while Home Assistant is stopped, the timer.finished event will fire on startup for that timer. The finished_at property in the event data will provide you with the time that the timer was actually supposed to fire which you can use in automation conditions to decide whether or not to act on it. One issue with the installation of these devices is that some models can’t be set up without a neutral wire.

Fired when a timer has completed and includes finished_at date/time in event data. finished_at should usually be now, or within the last several seconds, but if the restore property is true, finished_at may be further in the past since this event will fire on startup for any timers that would have ended while Home Assistant was stopped. The factory recommends that the sensor is not installed near any light source, The light output from the light can affect the sensor. Many household items are run by time switches, for example, central heating and hot water pre-set to switch 'on' and 'off' at a certain hour each day, or a slow cooker pre-set to cook for a certain number of hours to ensure your dinner is ready for you when you arrive home after a day at work or a day out. DIN Rail Time Switches Part L of the Building regulations is changing and outdoor lighting needs to meet new standards namely... 100w per fitting is the maximum permissible and these must be automatically controlled i.e. with a dusk to dawn sensor or used with a proximity or PIR detector. Most timer plugs can be set for a range of times so you can, for example, turn lamps on and off twice a day. Some plug in timers also feature a countdown timer which is handy when you want something to turn off after a certain amount of time. This feature is great for charging appliances and devices.Manually finish a running timer earlier than scheduled. You can also use entity_id: all and all active timers will be finished. Service data attribute Are the fixing screws captive? As there are four of them it could be easy to loose some when adjusting the rotary switches. Is there an override switch, i.e. if I set it to switch off after 2 hours and then decide I need to have lights on for another hour will I need to open the box to do that ? Not something you would typically use to wire this type of sensor. Really it depends on the diameter of the SWA but we tend to suggest no, use a more appropriate flex.
