Tools and Hardware Reviews of Aube by Honeywell TI071/U Solar Time Table, Programmable Timer Switch, White

Customer Review: The best light timer by far
Summary: 5 Stars

As far as I know, there is nothing even close to this on the market.

I have had a few of these for many years. None have ever failed. Setup is straightforward and programming is reasonable.

Having the lights automatically adjust for sunrise/sunset is great. If we leave the house at 4pm and come back at 9pm, the front lights are on.

There is a little bug in the programming (TI034). It screws up if it is programmed to turn on before midnight and turn off after midnight. I forget now how it screws up, because I changed mine to turn off just before midnight. I think it just stayed on.

I would like more flexible programming, but that usually comes with complexity. There isn't much space there for a display.

1. Be able to set an offset (sunset +/- nn minutes).

2. A random feature where it would vary the actual on/off times by +/- nn minutes. This is a minor point, because it already vary some because of changing sunset/sunrise times.

3. Automatic adjustment for daylight savings. That may be a problem, because they could change the cutover date, so maybe it's better as it is.
This also allows me to synch the clock twice a year. The timer does not keep perfect time, which is surprising. I would think it could use the 60 Hz from the grid to stay perfectly in time. Maybe an upgraded model could include a received for the time signal from Colorado? :-)

This is one of my favorite gadgets. It used to be very hard to find. I am glad that Amazon is now carrying it. I often give them away as gifts.

07/30/10 Update: Aube makes quite a few models. It took me awhile to figure out the differences and I bought one wrong model. Some of them are designed for more heavy-duty work and controlling motors (033 & 035). I see that they now have a few new models with more programming options and higher wattage ratings. Most of mine are the 034. These are fine for porch lights. Our front porch light is also wired in with the front outside plug so it can control external Christmas lights. The 500 watt max for the 034 is limiting. I may get the new 071 or 072 to replace that one.

Here's a summary of the model from the Aube website (aubetech dot com). Please excuse the (. . .). That's the only way I could find to make a table.

Customized Lighting Saves Money and Energy
Whether you want your outdoor lights to come on only at night, or your indoor lights to randomly turn on and off when you're away from home, the ECONOSWITCH is a great way to gain peace of mind. This programmable timer switch can help make you feel more secure and can also save you money on energy costs.

The ECONOSWITCH's three modes of operation make it easy to create a customized lighting program that fits your lifestyle. The manual mode operates via a conventional on/off switch. The automatic mode turns lights on/off at sunset and sunrise, or on at sunset and off at your own programmed time--this mode also adjusts for daylight saving. You can also choose vacation mode, which randomly activates your lights to simulate a presence when you're away from home.

Fast Installation and Easy Programming
Thanks to clear instructions and labeled wires, the ECONOSWITCH is quick and easy to install and program. The intuitive three-button interface makes it simple to create up to seven programs per week--the programs can apply to a single day or the entire week via a single-pole three-wire (line, load, and neutral) connection (1,800-watt maximum; 3/4 horsepower at 120 volts). Additionally, for each day of the week, you can choose sunset/sunrise programming, specific on/off times, or both.

And when the seasons change, you can count on your lights turning on only when outside conditions warrant--automatic daylight saving updates mean you don't have to reprogram.

Versatile Unit Features Backlit Display and LED
Designed for versatility, the ECONOSWITCH works with motors and all types of lighting. It's compatible with electronic ballasts, compact fluorescent lights, and tungsten lighting up to 12 Amperes. For further convenience, a large, white backlit display includes a night light mode for easy reading in dark areas. There's also a confirmation LED for at-a-glance load status (on or off).

Dimensions and Warranty Information
The ECONOSWITCH T1071 Seven-Day Solar Programmable Wall Switch measures 1.7 by 2.7 by 1.7 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a three-year warranty.
