LOWENERGIE 6A illuminated timer switch rundown time lag energy saving, 12sec-12min adjustable 2 Wire

Bought this switch to fit in food store, pantry, as nearly everyone was forgetting to switch off light after use.I wired this switch in series with the existing switch which was located outside of the pantry. Timer switch I fitted just inside the pantry. Switch outside the pantry can be left on or can be switched off if shorter light time is required. I set my switch to just over 2 minutes.. It took quite a few attempts to get the timer setting that I wanted. The control knob is very sensitive if a low time is required, however the timer is easier to set if a longer “on” time is required, 12 minutes being the maximum. Switch is illuminated when in the “off” mode which makes it very easy to locate in a dark environment. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase, the quality is good enough for the job intended and the switch fits into a standard light switch pattress. If you are prepared to be patient with adjusting the timer I would recommend this item.

Fitted in a garage so very good that it's an illuminated switch plus goes off after 5 minutes so no chance of the light being left on for long periods. Easy to install

I got it for use with lights in a carport to get over the issue of unnecessarily leaving those lights on. The switch is mounted internally and the unit has been in place for several months now.PROS:Not expensiveArrived on time.Easy to fitIt works consistentlyAppears adequately robust.CONSThe dial to adjust the length of time the lights stay on is encased in the switch housing - would have been nice if it had been on the face of the unit.Time consuming to calibrate the duration of the lights being on and have to open the housing to adjust it.Just occasionally - when doing something in the carport at night - it would have been convenient to have an override switch to keep the lights on.Overall though - a worthwhile buy - which has probably paid for itself by now

In my opinion, this product is not fit for purpose. Just stopped working after 14 months. The sellers excuse was that a pfcc had not been fitted. I have LED lighting throughout my home, no flickering lights anywhere. Told that it is a 1 Year warranty, no interest in providing a replacement. Don't waste your money.

For a 1 - way timer switch this is an excellent product. Had one working for years and have bought 2 more since. It is not a 2-way switch as in it's description

Used this for the cellar light as it was frequently being left swicthed on, especially overnight! This switch was fitted in place of the standard 2-wire switch and, as we have low energy lights in the cellar with a T8 fluorescent tube and a small LED 'tube' light, the supplied 4uf power factor correction capacitor was also fitted. It all worked fine, however the LED light now emits a horrible buzzing. It does make me think it's now being stressed in some way and will eventually fail. The other problem is the capacitor. It's huge and won't fit in either light fitting so is currently attached outside of the LED light. Not ideal but just about acceptable in the cellar. Likewise with the buzzing, you wouldn't want the noise in a living room but it's acceptable in the cellar.After a few day's use it's apparent that the push button switch itself is none too good either. It's sloppy in its housing and really needs a heavy conscious press to get the light on, certainly not a casual tap that i was hoping for.And another negative is that the timer is not re-triggerable, that is, if you're on the 12minute setting and someone presses the switch, in our case to pop down the cellar, and then someone else needs to go down 10 minutes later even if they press the switch again they'll still left in darkness after the remaining 2 minutes on the timer!!Summary - it does work (for now at least) but it's far from ideal with too many drawbacks, so I'm probably being generous with three stars! I can see myself looking for a different switch before too long.

Bought this to switch our bathroom fan on and off and needed a two wire switch (no neutral). It was easy to fit and to set up. It seems to be very good value for money.

Good product does what it says. Simple to connect and use. Robust electrically.
