Pros & Cons

Pros

You can set sunrise and sunset times for any day of the year.

Installation is pretty straight forward. Thankfully, the procedures for doing any of these things are not all that difficult. Both the installation and operational instructions are reasonably clear. Easy to install with the clear instructions.

Has worked perfectly for a couple of months now. Works like a charm. That done, this thing is awesome.

This switch is everything i was looking for in a programmable switch for my outside lights. Comes with a small white jumper wire to attach the switch to the bundle. Installed & working in 45 minutes.

Arrived as promised and packaged well (thank you jasco) fantastic timer. Outstanding product. Loved it.



Cons

The clock loses time, so the dusk and dawn times vary more and more each day. Although this was one of the least costly options, it's ultimately a waste of money.

Shipping


Arrived as promised and packaged well (thank you jasco).


After i input the date, time, and relative latitude, all i had to do was press the sunrise on and sunset off buttons, and i was done.

Packaging/appearance


I suggest that you look and see how deep your box is to make sure this will fit.

Competitiveness


( very important ) programming the timer was just as easy compared to some other timers that i tried.


I've been using a similar switch from intermatic for a few years, which works perfectly fine too, but this one is easier to set...  Read More


I compared the honeywell to other brands.


Honeywell/jasco includes a jumper wire, so if the switch you're replacing wasn't wired to a neutral, you can connect this unit ...  Read More

    Essentially the old switch just put a break in the circuit to turn the lights onoff but this switch requires constant power to the switch itself for it’s timing functions but also needs to be able to toggle on and off the power to the actual lights
