Since it has a white wire, is the clock powered and can be used to control a wall outlet, which may or may not have a lamp plugged in?

It is a digital wall switch 7 days program to replace a mechanical wall switch. If the switch can connect to an outlet or an outdoor light e.g. front door light. It does not matter if you have a lamp plugged in or not. It also has a manual on switch that you can turn on the light anytime.

The clock is powered by 120V and also has battery backup in case of a power outage. I actually use it inside of a coke machine to turn the exterior lights on and off so I'm not paying for the lights to be on all day. It should work fine for your outlet as it handles 120V in and out. Just Ohm out the wire that goes to your outlet and hook it to the power out wire on the timer. I haven't had an issue with it yet, but I had a friend that got a couple of duds before he finally got a good one. Worth the money though!

yes, the clock is powered, and there is a built in rechargeable battery. The black wire and white (neutral) wire needs to be connected to a constant voltage source. The green connects to ground (bare wire) and the red is the timer output wire to control a light and/or an outlet.

No, this needs wall power. I think most battery-operated continuous lights are LED based (for lower power draw at a lower voltage).

I hardwired the lamp; however the other option is to plug it into a wall outlet.

It is Not batter powered...you will need an electrician to install to the wires in the ceiling...it hooks up like any regular ceiling light fixture

No. Lamp will *not* power up from a switched outlet that has been switched off, and then back on. Too bad; that would be a nice feature!

it has battery backup in case the power goes out, but it does plugs in to a wall outlet' I love this clock because I can set 2 separate alarms for weekdays and weekends!!

We returned ours, you had to plug it into an electric outlet. Not many normal clock have a plug in...kinda of a giveaway.

yes. you always leave the lamp / fixture on and control it with the switch you stick on the wall. they also sell a plug / receptacle control that you plug into the wall and then plug your lamp into that.

It does for me on an outlet that I control with a switch. Should work the same with a timer. It's been a great accent light for us.

No. It's not a lamp. It's an out door spot light. You hook up using the wires already built into the side your home. For instance, i removed my porch light hooked up to my home and replaced it with this. I turn it on and off by my light switch inside the home.

No, it is meant to work only on a battery. It works well but unfortunately, it cannot use a wall outlet.

The lamp plugs in the wall. There is no on or off switch. If you want it on plug it in if you want it off unplug it.

There is not a battery to make this clock operate. It is powered by a wall outlet.

Yes, it is not battery powered. It must be plugged into a wall outlet in order to work.

This is a power switch for devices without a switch or has one that is not in a convenient location. So the switch turns the power on or off just like a wall light switch. Clocks are usually in devices that are designed to stay on and not usually for devices that are frequently turned on and off. If you use this on a device with a clock it will stop every time the power is turned off.

Dido to the prior answers. It is plugged into the wall. Did I mention that the clock is GIGANTIC and really sticks out in a residential/home/apartment location. It is a big piece of plastic that is not worth what they are charging. Don't be a fish and get hooked on this one!!!
