DEWENWILS 24 Hour Programmable Digital Timer Outlet, 125V/15A/1000W (2 Pack)-HIDT22X

After dealing year after year with various other brands not doing the job, especially when we change to or from daylight saving time, I have now thrown out all the failing timers and purchased these.This brand is proof, what apparently no other brand is capable of accomplishing: Timers can be easy to be set.We have timers in every room of the house for mostly low light table lamps, mainly to have some low light when we get up early in the morning, and in a second programming for later afternoon and evenings. Everyone kept forgetting to turn lights off when leaving a room, and sometimes you just need a low light as a guide to another room while it is dark.This brand was my last hope to find timers that would work as intended. I ordered them a 3 pm, Amazon delivered at 6 pm the same day (amazing!).I took them out of the box, set the time, one program for the morning, one for the evening without ever looking at the instructions, plugged them in, and voila, every single one works just perfect. The timers come with the option to program 3 times, I use only 2. I have 2 4-packs so far, but I will order one more for my office.

Long story short, my Internet has been acting up every 2–3 days at exactly 2:16 AM ever since I signed up for Frontier a few years ago. My latency shoots above 200 ms and packet loss hits around 5%, which makes many online activities nearly impossible. I’m tech savvy enough to know the issue is with my ONT (the device between the ISP and router), and the only quick fix has been to power cycle it.After repeatedly asking Frontier to send a technician, they only agreed once I threatened to cancel service. Even then, they wanted to charge me a $150 service fee plus hardware replacement costs for something that’s been faulty since day one.That’s when I found this nifty little device, and I’m honestly mad I didn’t buy it sooner. I simply programmed it to turn off at 2:20 AM and back on at 2:21 AM, and it completely fixed the problem. I’ve also read that many people use it to power cycle routers that overheat and slow down over time.It’s easy to program (up to three timers), slim enough to leave the other outlet free, and one of its best features is the 3-month battery backup for programmed settings in case the power goes out, which is bound to happen at least a couple times a year.

I love electronic timers. No noise and accurate on/on without a click. Great value for two and easy to set.
