Tools and Hardware Reviews of Leviton 612-6230M-W Decora 30-15-10-5 Preset Minute Electronic Timer, White
Customer Review: Good product, just make sure your wiring can handle it
Summary: 5 Stars
This is wonderful product for venting the bathroom especially if you have kids. I have one bathroom that doesn't have one and the fan is always on blowing my conditioned air outside. So that is why I got this one.
You need to make sure though that your wiring can handle this. If you don't have a neutral wire at the switch location forget it. Generally this means you need at least two white wires wire nutted together, but there are other ways to have a neutral.

easy to install easy to use easy to allot right amount of time to clear shower humidity Customer Review: Installed for bathroom exhaust fan
Summary: 5 Stars
The product image incorrectly shows the 15 minute version, but note that this switch actually does 5-10-15-30 minutes. I previously purchased the Leviton LCD timer switch, which I would also highly recommend. Both switches require a neutral wire connection so check your wiring before purchasing. The switch itself is a bit bulky compared to a regular switch so if you have a lot of wiring stuffed in the box, you may have to move it around. Otherwise, installation is not particularly difficult.Customer Review: Works as advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought two of these - one for each bathroom. Installation was easy, and the timer works as advertised.
As other reviewers have noted, this product requires the unswitched power be available at the wall box where the timer is mounted. It can't be made to work if the unswitched power goes to the ceiling box where the ceiling fan is mounted and only the two wires for the switch come down to the wall box. If you've got that kind of setup, you'll need to go with an old-fashioned mechanical timer instead.
Customer Review: works nice.
Summary: 4 Stars
Hooked this timer to my bathroom fan. Already had modular style switches so it blends in well with other devices. Installed easily (make sure you have neutral wire available in your box). Works properly. Always left the fan running for a lot longer than I needed, so this was perfect solution. Cost of unit is pretty high, so going to take a long time to recoup cost in utilities savings.
