SunBlaster 24hr Analog Timer, Single Outlet, 15 Amp

A Mechanical Timer That Keeps Its Pins From Going Missing

Standard mechanical timers use pins that pop in and out of the dial to set a schedule, and those loose pins have a way of disappearing between growing seasons, leaving a timer that can't hold a full schedule anymore. SunBlaster's 24-Hour Analog Timer uses a non-removable pin design, so the pins stay attached to the timer body instead of getting lost in a drawer.

It also carries twice the control pins of a standard mechanical timer, giving 15-minute scheduling precision instead of the coarser hour-long blocks common on basic analog timers, with a grounded outlet and manual override switch for everyday flexibility.

Key Features & Benefits

• Non-Removable Pin Design — pins stay secured to the timer body instead of getting lost between grow cycles.
• 15-Minute Scheduling Precision — twice the control pins of a standard mechanical timer.
• Grounded Single Outlet — rated for 15 amps, supporting a wide range of grow lights and fans.
• Manual Override Switch — force the outlet on or off regardless of the current schedule.

Who Should Use This Timer

This timer fits growers who want a straightforward mechanical schedule without programming a digital interface, and who have run into missing pins on cheaper timers in past seasons.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this timer's pins different from a standard mechanical timer?

This timer has twice the control pins of a standard mechanical timer, giving 15-minute scheduling precision instead of the coarser hour-long increments common on basic analog timers. The pins are also non-removable, staying attached to the timer body instead of popping out and getting lost between grow cycles.

How do I set up a daily on/off schedule?

Push in the pins for the time blocks when the outlet should be off, leaving the rest of the dial's pins in the default on position, then plug the timer into a wall outlet and the load into the timer. The dial repeats the same 24-hour schedule every day until the pins are changed.

What is the override switch for?

The override switch lets a grower manually force the outlet on or off regardless of the current pin schedule. That's useful for testing a light or fan without waiting for the timer to cycle to that point in its schedule.

Is this timer rated for grow lights and fans?

Yes, the timer's grounded outlet is rated for 15 amps, which covers most single grow lights, fans, and similar equipment. Check the wattage of anything plugged in against the timer's rated capacity before connecting multiple devices to one timer.
