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

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.

Excellent timer switch! I bought it 7 years ago, and it has worked perfectly ever since. You can set the timer from 1 minute up to 30 minutes. Very reliable and easy to use. I highly recommend it!

I put this switch in yesterday. The switch seems well built and worked as advertised. The led lights stay on and are very bright. If you need or want a night light it would be great. The lights were to bright for us and I will replace with a switch that lights go off when not in use.

Perfect timer switch. Installed in all 4 of my bathrooms to control the fans. Now I do not have to worry about people leaving them on. They feel great, not cheap and fit perfect. Wiring was extremely easy but I have a background in electrical work (it is not hard but if you have no idea what you are doing, hire someone). The ONLY down side is that the blue LED blinks twice and then turns off so you do not know how much longer remains on the timer. High end ones will visually count down, and show you how much time is left. This one, blinks twice to indicate what you have selected and then shows no indication that it is on. Because I’m using bathroom fans, it is obvious that it is on. However, if you are using something that does not produce and noise or sound, it will probably be very annoying not knowing if it is activated or not. Besides that, 10/10, great bang for the buck. 4 cost me 80 dollars, whereas the more expensive would’ve cost me closer to 160 for 4. It seems to be compatible with what you can hook it into, just be aware of if you need a neutral wire or not. This one does NOT use a neutral wire. Hopefully this review made sense. Thanks for reading.

I bought one of these to try as a bathroom fan switch and liked it so well I bought two more for my other two bathrooms. People have a tendency to turn the exhaust fan on and forget about, meanwhile you're pumping expensive heated or cooled air outside for hours until someone remembers to turn it off. With this device you hit one of the buttons and it turns itself off when the timer's done. Just a normal day? Hit the ten minute button. Had three servings of chili last night? Maybe think about the 20 or 30 minute button. I really have no way to confirm they are saving money on my electric bill due to the warmer than usual winter we're having this year but it seems to me that they probably are. Installation took about 20 minutes on the first one and maybe 10 minutes apiece on the next two. The only problem I had was hooking up the timer output to the hot wire by mistake on one of them. I reversed it and it works fine, no problem. I understand there are two models, one with LED's and one without, this is the one with LED's. They are brighter than you might think and work well as a nightlight for us, but could be distracting if you installed it somewhere other than a bathroom. I only have two very minor complaints, neither of them troubling enough to deduct stars: 1. The timer comes with a single wall plate but you'll most likely need a bigger one with a cutout for the light switch if you install in a bathroom. The wall plate is around $0.80. 2. The timer seems to run a little long. I timed the 15 minute button on one of them and it ran about 18 minutes. This is of no real consequence if used for a fan timer but I guess it could be if used for some other purpose. Now that I have them installed I really don't know why new houses don't come with them already installed. It's a cool upgrade for $18.

I've had the same one in my bathroom about 10 years now, works as good as it did when it was brand new. Love the blue LED's! You can't go wrong with this switch/timer.

This is a must have for your bathroom fan. Set it and forget it - dont have to come back later to turn it off. And bonus! Is also a way to communicate to next person using the bath room If you see the fan was set for just 5 mins, its probably safe. But if the person before you set it to 30 mins, you might want to give it some time to air out... So its a good win-win for everyone. Update: dropped rating from 5 to 3 because new one has insufferably bright. I mean really, REALLY bright lights. It 'works' but it's getting sent back if I can't find a good way to dim it. The first one just died so I reordered another one. Both have very bright blue LED lights. The first was tolerable but this new one you could use as a light house it's so bright. You need sun block lotion. I can actually read the newspaper with just it's light 5 feet away. I had to paint over the lights to dim them. Enough light makes it thru to see which is on. Sheesh, were people complaining about not being able see dimmer lights? Why use lights you can get a tan from? If the manufacturer is listening: use dimmer lights, a *LOT* dimmer. I don't need them to illuminate the whole room, just enough to see which is on. And I'm still on fence about returning it because of the brightness, so it's costing you sales.

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.

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.
