Schedule your home lights with a Honeywell Home 7-Day Programmable Light Switch Timer. The Honeywell RPLS730B1000/U allows you to wire your lights, fans and other devices through a timer switch that can help save money while adding a level of convenience and safety to your home. Scheduled programming allows this programmable light switch to turn your home lights on and off, saving you time and energy. Easily program up to 7 on-and-off schedules per week that can be repeated daily or weekly. Painless single-pole installation saves you the hassle of hiring a third party to install your programmable light switch. The unit comes with a built-in rechargeable battery and the programming is protected during power outages. LED compatibility requires a neutral wire for operation. To be precise, this light switch timer functions on a 120 Volt line wire, load wire, one neutral from line side and one from the load side joined together with a wire nut. Once these components are connected with the timer, the Honeywell RPLS730B1000/U will have LED compatibility. It's also important to note that the wattage of the LED bulb should not exceed 2400 Watts.

Tried 4 other brands of these and none of them worked. Ordered this one and works perfectly and easy to set up.

These timers are easy to install and work perfectly. I installed them on all of my outdoor lights, so I never have to worry about turning lights on/off. The timers are easy to adjust. I have an on/off program for each season, so the lights are only on in hours of darkness, and I don't waste energy.

GREAT product, installed in 3 minutes. I had struggled with three different makes and models of timed switches before I found this one. The other ones required a PhD in wiring and another PhD in understanding strangely worded installation instructions. This one is a charm!! It is hard to find a timed light switch that is not wired for every possibility and so works for none. My switch outlet had 2 white and a black.

Easy to wire, easy to program and has a clean look.Please be aware that it has it's own battery inside. You need to wait up to 2 minutes to see the screen after you install the switch. If after 2 minutes nothing happens, then it may be a problem with the battery inside the unit. I don't know if you can change that, but pleas be aware if the product doesn't work. It will be easily replaced, so no need to give bad reviews for the first time. Honeywell is a good brand, so it should work as expected.

Fairly easy to install, well priced and so far works well. I'd still like to know what type of built in rechargeable battery it has and how long that will last, but it's internal and not accessible. It sure beats having to put lights on mechanical timers that are often inaccurate and more time consuming to set up. This is super easy to program but make sure to retain the instructions for down the road, least you forget how you did it! LOL! I will buy another one now. Oh, and like the bathroom fan timer switches, they do need more space inside the junction box so sort your wiring and trim it carefully so you have an easier time to get it into the box after you've wired it up. A ground wire is required too. The on/off manual switch functions well and only requires a light touch to turn in on and off.

I have two of these, the first installed more than 2 months ago. These control my front porch light, and my garage lights. Some notes for people considering these:The pros: - this will fit in a standard gang box (some alternatives I looked at were so large they would not have fit). I fit this in a 2 gang and a three gang box, with decora rockers. A bit of a push, but doable. - they work with any light, including the cfls - they can operate as a standard, if but expensive, regular switch - they are actually remarkably easy to program, despite being small (but see a con below about the LCD) - you can program like 9 programs. Each program is an "on - off" sequence. So for me, it takes two programs to turn the lights on in the AM, before we go to work, and then turn them off, then turn them back on, in the PM, before we get home, and then turn the off after we go to bed. I have no idea why you would need 9 programs, but there you have it.The cons: - as others have noted this requires a neutral wire. So, for example, you cannot install this in a loop that is past the light itself where just hot wires come into the box. - as a result of the observation above, installation is not simple for non electricians like me. My home has somewhat complex wiring (red wires, white, black, some hot and wired on outlets, some outlets wired for switches etc.). The instructions warn about wiring this hot, but I had no choice. I could not determine which wire was neutral and running up and down to shut the power off got old. It did not seem to affect the unit (wiring it hot). - the three wires that come out of the unit are silver strand, not solid - I think 16 gauge. This means you have to use twist caps to get the connection. In one case (the 3 gang box) I had like 4 or 5 white wires to connect with this - which was a mess and hard, and if the strands are loose, the connection will not work. - the LCD panel is not backlit. Most switches are about 4 ft high. I had to use a flashlight and bend down to see the LCD . . . so reprogramming them for me requires a flashlight so I can see the LCD. This in fact is why it does not get 5 stars. - the switch for manual on off is a click switch on little square pins, so the cover of the switch feels a little "dangly" when you push it to turn lights on or off manually. Therefore, sometimes you cannot tell if it "clicked." This cover does however cover over the programming buttons, so it is nice for that.You would think with this many cons this would not be 4 stars, however, they are relatively minor quibbles. Once they are set up, these seem to work well. I do not know about long term reliability.- mike

This thing is really cool. I wanted something that I could use to put my porch light on a timer with a CFL bulb, and this works perfectly.Some other available products (light sensors and other timers, including a Honeywell timer similar to this one) only work with incandescent bulbs, which defeats the purpose of putting lights on a timer to save energy. I could leave my 26-watt CFL (100w equivalent) on all day and still use less electricity than a 100-watt incandescent on an 8-hour timer.With this model, you can program either a single on/off cycle to repeat every day, or up to 7 separate on/off cycles for each individual day of the week. I think you can also set an every-day cycle and combine it with 6 additional day-specific cycles if you choose. The cover for the programming buttons also functions as the manual on/off button, and using it does not interfere with your programs.There is another model that works with CFLs -and- can be set to vary its on/off times to match your local daylight calendar () but for the extra cost, I didn't need that feature.I had some trouble figuring out that you have to slide a toggle under the button cover to "ON" before the switch itself will work AT ALL. I thought that was a bit confusing in the instructions, so now you'll know. Programming is not very difficult but it took me a few tries to figure it out. When you are finished programming, just close the cover and press it once (as if you're turning the light on) to exit programming mode.To use this timer, you need to have a light switch where the power enters at the switch rather than at the light fixture. That's because the timer itself needs to have electricity constantly, in order to operate while the light is turned off. If your power enters at the light fixture instead, shutting off the light would also kill the power to the timer. Most houses are wired the correct way, which typically means at least 1 pair of black/white wires entering the switch box. If instead there is no white wire (i.e. neutral) at the switch, only two black wires or a black and a red, you won't be able to use this timer. (Note: There is no safety concern if your switch box doesn't contain a white neutral wire - it's just an antiquated wiring practice).As a side note, this switch has some sort of capacitor inside that saves your programs during power outages. It isn't a battery, so you would never need to replace it. It has worked fine through a couple of brief outages so far.Edit: Lost power for over a week from some nasty storms this summer (July 2012), but the timer remembered all of my programs and the clock was still correct. Awesome!
