Is a timer provided? Are there buzzers for the team to hit?

No but we didn't seem to need them. One of us played Steve Harvey who had the final say using the consensus of the group as to who hit their hand on the table first.

Hi, We used a sand dial timer from another game. I ordered buzzers separately. I ordered these, which are really fun: Learning Resources Answer Buzzers

There is no timer and there is no buzzers - just the Family Feud question cards. Buzzers and timers are sold separately; I bought them right there on Amazon.

Yes - The timer always resets to whatever countdown time you initially set it to. Once the time has elapsed, the buzzer beeps and when you push 'stop' it resets to your original time. I use mine in competition and we have relays of 12:30; after each relay, when the buzzer beeps, I simply push stop and the timer is automatically reset to 12:30

Yes. Punch in "3", "0", and hit "Start/Stop" to initiate and when countdown is complete (timer beeps) then hit the "Start/Stop" button to stop the noise. At this point the timer displays the previous 30-second count. Hit the "Start/Stop" button and the cycle continues. Hours of fun. Not sure exactly what you are looking for but this is a great timer.

Yes, it has a timer. It's packed away so I can't tell you the features of the timer.

Yes, though it depends on the number of players. Also there's a fairly wide variability. We've finished games in 20 minutes and also 90 minutes.

It's just a basic timer. Go, stop, and clear. Goes up to one hour. Not a clock. I teach. I use it to time tests. Has 00:00:00 on it. I had a sports timer before. This one is easier to use and more accurate.

I googled the directions. Each team you play with might have different rules.

No. There is one short very high pitched beep at the end of the timer period. Hard to hear and only occurs once. Better to use an external timer.

Hi Sallee! I tried it out this morning and set my phone stopwatch to time it. It buzzed at 15 min. 45 sec. I hope this helps! Too bad your buzzer doesn't work!!

I will ask our guys - I don't actually use the timer - bought it for our BBALL league! I'll get back to youi soon!

I have never found a way to set a timer, if there is one, on this fan. The fan works well, but is bit noisy.

Yes "FREE" setting you just keep score... The timed games just gives you the count down and gets the kids moving quickly at the end. The kids love it and the ref button stops any fighting... we all agree that if someone calls foul we just hit the foul button and whatever they say goes.

Yes it has a self-timer. In fact, you can get to it directly by tapping down on the up-down stick

Hi. I have this product. There is no "buzzer" sound option. The sounds are similar to an old cell phone ring tones. The sound I use for my own bell is similar to when entering a convenient store. I hope this was a helpful description.

There is a remote available though I did not purchase that. From a quick search it appears you probably will need a remote receiver add-on to the Timer as well as the remote control.

Mike,Definitely. While it's plugged in there isn't much of an issue; I've found if the charge runs down or if it's cold (we played ultimate outside during the fall with the clock as timekeeper) that it'll intermittently turn off/on otherwise the clock is good. I don't make much use of the buzzer option (read: I disconnected it) so I'm not sure how loud it is but it's reliable and easily reset.

It could do something like that. For an hour long meeting, you could do something like this: 1. Set a 45 minute timer with a low beep with a one second duration 2. Set a 5 minute timer with a low beep with a one second duration 3. Repeat step 2 4. Set the last 5 minute timer (for a 60 minute total duration) with a large beep with a 1 second duration. At the end of the 60 minute program, the gymboss will give off beeps until given user input. Hopefully something like that works. You can tailor it how you see fit. Pun not intended.
