6-socket individually programmable digital power strip

[ems1016]

First, I have no affiliation with the vendor that I am about to recommend. Click here:

Aquarium Digital PROGRAMMABLE TIMER Wave Maker/Light

to check out a $50 digital programmable timer with 6 sockets; 5 of which are EACH SEPARATELY programmable with 6 on/off programs. With shipping from China to me here in Upstate NY, the entire cost was $70. 110v and 220v available.

Prompt shipping and the timer is easy to program and works great. I have the viv light set on a 9am-10:15pm socket 1 which cycles 7 days a week and then I have my ventilation fan and humidifier on two separate sockets, each programmed to turn on and off 6 times a day, with the humidifier always turning on a minute or so after the ventilation fan has run (to re-humidify the tank). Very pleased with it and just wanted to pass it along.

how long have you had it in use?

This is a great find! As long as it works smoothly, I see myself buying it very soon. Much better then my current 3 different power timers lol

Well, only a week. Maybe I should report back in a couple of weeks? Just really excited about the product. Only thing I ever found remotely similar to this was selling for a couple hundred dollars or so.

Dealer is highly rated and responds to e-mails immediately. So far, I have nothing negative to say about the purchase.

No, Lowe's does not have the same unit. Lowes' unit does not allow EACH SOCKET to be timed separately on 6 different programs. Not the same thing by a long shot. Been there, done that---returned it. Ed

Ooooo... I likey and this is going on my wish list. With the right timing and 1-2 of those, plus my zilla and mistking timer...that could make one hell of a environment simulator.

OK, I promised to report back. I have my humidifier, computer ventilation fan, fluorescent lighting, and a 1500W heater hooked up to this wondrous piece of socketry. Each is running on SEPARATE programs, each with 6 different event settings. That is what separates this Bad Boy from all the rest. And the price, well, where can you buy something like this any cheaper?

I highly recommend this unique product and hope that future buyers will post their experiences with the unit!
