Does this fixture work (turn on/off) using a timer?

Yes it does. Make sure the timer you use in the wall is for 3-prong outlet (grounded)

This fixture does not include a timer. You can purchase a timer separately.

Yes it does. You turn the 2 switches to the on position and then plug it into the timer. It works great for me. 2 seasons of garden seed starting with no bulb changes yet!

Yes it should. It is simply an on/of switch triggered by motion, that sends power to a screw in fixture.

I've been using mine with a really low wattage LED porch light for about 2 years now. The bulb and the timer have been working fine all of this time.

all timing switches need to have a neutral connector to work with CFL and LED, otherwise your bulbs will flicker. I found out the hard way. It's because regular timers allow a small amount of electricity to go through to power the timer itself which causes issues with CFL/LED bulbs which expect zero electricity when off.But from other people's photo of the wiring, I see a neutral connector on the back so the answer is YES it will work without the flickering issues for all bulb types.

I don't use the timer as it was slow to set. I use the light sensor and have the lights come on at dusk and go off 6 hours later

Yes, the timer uses a relay (like a mechanical switch) to control the light.. any light type.I use mine with a regular CFL.

Yes. When you set the timer switch duration, it will reset every time the power to the switch turns off, in anticipation of the next "on" cycle.

If it works with a light switch it will work with this timer. It is just a simple set of brass contacts.

I don't think it'll work with a timer. If it is on and then unplugged- when you plug it back in, you have to hit the buttons again to turn it back on.

I set mine on "timer" and then switched it to "on". It worked for a while but about half of my timers wouldn't hold the actual time so they wouldn't come on at the right time.

I'm not sure, as we do not use ours on a timer. Sorry if this isn't helpful.

Yes - that's how I have one of mine being used to put light on a sheet of plastic canvas. Note: can't have this on a timer as it does not turn off/on using a timer. Works fine when you leave it on

Hi Denton...should work, my install is behind a double switch plate with one traditional switch and this timer. This works well with LED lights, it has a battery to assist the switching action because of the small amount out electricity for operation. Others will not work on low voltage lights.Joe

No...it is a motion detector light only. You probably would need an electrician to put a timer on your light switch or you can buy a socket timer where you screw the timer into where your light bulb goes and then you screw the bulb into it. Good luck

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, the light is just wires and lights, you would have to do any timers on the electrical side.

That depends on if you want to use the moon light or not.. yes a timer will turn the light on and off, but both lights are controlled by a single switch so the timer will only control whichever light is turned on.There IS a way to bypass the switch and use two timers but that requires some decent electrical knowledge and another identical 12 volt transformer.That being said, it's a real nice light. I've got mine on a 90 gal and it's great, I highly recommend it.Anymore questions, email me jb.jasonbeck@Gmail.com and I'll be happy to answer if I can..
