Can this unit be powered by a digital wall switch, such as a leviton 5-10-15 (5 minute, 10 minute, 15 minute digital timer)

Don't really know. I would think that it would work fine on any timer. I just plug it in when needed and pull the plug out after.

I mounted it with a simple wall, on/off switch, but I can't imagine why a timer switch wouldn't work..........Actually, it sounds like a great idea.............Good luck.

Yes you can work this heater with a digital timer. When wiring the switch run the black wire through the switch as this switch works like other switches. It breaks the current or closes the circuit. One thing to remember you will need to set the temperature to the level that you want to use. If it is warmer than the setting your heater will not run. To avoid this you will need to bypass the thermostat when hooking up the power. The heater will than run any time when turned on until the time runs out, no matter what the temperature is in the room. Be careful and have a licensed electrition do your wiring.

this device can't do what you're asking. you might want to look at a mechanical timer that gives you several options of turning on and off your appliances

The timer is a preset electronic device. Without more knowledge of the circuit I would not know if it can be changed or not.

yes you can but it would take a external button. the timer would be set for 1 second and the manual push button would start the timer, after 1 second timer would time out and the cycle would be complete, upon pressing the button the timer would then go through another cycle. the manual for this device is located online you can look up anything you want to and how it works.

I have not used it on a timer but I think if you put the toggle switch to ON and then plug it into a timer, it should work.

This timer will not do it . Check with the electrical department at home depot or menards. They have a timer that can do what you want.

No, it is to be used only for replacing a bath fan switch or solely as a timer switch if you want to have power run to a switched outlet and have it turn off after so many minutes.

The timer can be set up for 220VAC or 110VAC. I don't think you get away with one timer. The setup is very simple and the unit has a 4 hour battery back-up. Digital is just simpler and easier to program, also more accurate

Title is misleading. These units are manufactured with various DC and AC voltage ratings to OPERATE THE SWTICH; the one here RUNS on 12V DC and this power is used to CLOSE THE SWITCH when instructed by the timer; HOWEVER, the switch can be wired into any LOAD equivalent to 120V 16 amps (DC or AC). The confusing thing about the description of this switch is that the power that RUNS the switch has NOTHING to do with what you can wire into the switch, the 12V DC input simply CLOSES THE SWITCH but does NOT go through the switch.

Depends. Does the timer only use batteries and no power supply to charge them? If so I doubt it would give you much service as it would quickly drain your batteries. If, however, the timer uses a power supply that charges the batteries then yes it would work.

i don't know for sure, but my experience with digital push button power switches means that you would have to manually turn it on after it looses power. I'll check tonight when I get home and can let you know tomorrow.

I would say "yes". This timer is low voltage and can handle up to 120 watts.

Not sure, but if the total fan electrical load didn't exceed the rating of the switch I don't see why you couldn't. Probably best to call Leviton tech support and check with them.

Probably not. This Timer has six ON/OFF settings per day and some other DAY/WEEK stuff. One Minute ON/OFF (six times) a day is about as close as you get. Your need sounds like a Hydroponic Fluid Pump or something. Get a Timer Circuit (with Output Relay) from an Electronics Supply house.

It depends on how much amperage the wall timer can handle. This heater does pull some power

Yes you could use a timer (best to check it can handle 1500 watts or 700 High or low setting) .. you could with this model. will not reset when turned off

I don't think this would be a good idea. I believe that the Timer needs the full 110 volts to work properly.
