If I use a momentary switch to operate this ( turn it of /on) I can expect it to continue to provide power for up to 10 seconds right?

I don't think it's what you are looking for. It needs the input voltage to run the timer. If you hold the switch long enough to get past the user set time delay, as soon as you release the momentary switch the output relay will go back to the normally closed position. If you used a normally closed momentary switch you could connect to the normally closed side of the output relay, and provide power for a set amount of time, but there wouldn't be power before you pressed the button.

I used a momentary switch on the low voltage input side to trigger it on. There is a delay from when it kicks in, its not immediate. The length duty cycle, is adjustable and replacing the capacitor in the clock circuit can expand or reduce the window of time it remains on. But I don't recall the exact parameters as I've not used it in 3 months. Hope that helped you.

I just did a 10 minute experiment. Setting one outlet to off and the rest to on. Then unplugged the power strip. After 10 minutes I plugged it back in and the same ones were off and on as before I unplugged it. So, at least for short power failures it looks like it will.

I don't think there is supposed to be power there, I think it is only supposed to switch power you bring in. I'm not positive, but that is how I'm using it.

As long as you have a way to reset it. It is a time delay on relay so when it gets power it does not turn on the load until the time selected delay is meet. You would need 2 timers and a relay with N.O. and N.C. contacts to make the circuit work.

The switch gets its power by using the ground connection as a neutral, so it's running a small amount of current between live and ground. It's not a lot of power, just enough to run the detection circuitry, but it might draw enough for your GFCI to notice when it flips the relay.

The switch turns the effect on and leaves it on until pressed again. It is not a momentary switch. Hope that helps

Probably not, first, you would need a 12 v source for operation and it is not a clock timer, it will time for up to 999 seconds when activated and will stay activated until the signal is removed.

I don't know for sure. But the power switch is a button style that may only make momentary contact. With batteries or AC it turns ON of course. I'm not convinced you could press the power switch with the radio connected to a deenergized timer circuit and expect the radio to switch to ON hours later when the timer actuates. I would certainly experiment before relying on it.

If you mean that you want to plug a device with a battery into it at an arbitrary time (i.e., a different time each day) and have it automatically shut off after 45 minutes, then no, it won't do that.However, if you mean that you want to plug something into it at night, for example, and let the unit charge it for exactly 45 minutes overnight, then yes -- you could program it to do something like turn on at midnight and then turn off again at 12:45.

Not that I have noticed but it only uses 12v and is only running for 10 seconds at a time. Running it through a converter should not be an issue

im not sure exactly because i plug it in and do other things.. under 10 minutes..

If you're asking if it turns on before the 'switch' flips/clicks, mine does. I'm not sure that's an intended feature though.

No. It is set up to go on and off at pre-programmed times. There is another product that shuts off power after a fixed time.

Should not matter but normally I turn it on and don't turn it off right away. It does come on quite bright.

Likely less than 2 minutes... it will carry you thru a short power drop-off or give you time for a quick (but orderly) shutdown.

I have only used mine for several short periods. Time would depend on whether you run it continuously or turn it on and off.

Mine doesn't. It still provides power until the device stops requesting it. It would waste power. If you want to see the status, just click the button again.
