can I use it just as an on and off switch without using the timer function?

This particular item is an on/off switch only. I love it so much I bought one for my elderly aunt for her microwave!

Yes, this one doesn't have a timer. I use it simply as an on/off switch for my coffee pot.

Kind of, but you'd still have to unplug it and then plug it back in for it to turn off

Yes, you can use it just as an on and off switch. It's how I use this particular device.

Yes you would have to reset the timer if you flip the on/off switch. This is for things like a fan,washer,dryer,and so on. I use these power con servers on my washer and massage chair. Hope this helps you.

yes, you can definitely program this to turn on at a specific time and turn off at another time on the same day. e.g. turn light on at 6PM and turn off at 5AM. I use this to turn on/off the lights outside my place and they work great. I am very happy with this product.

Yes You Can. It Has a On & Off Button. it Can not be Used Unless You Turn It On.

Yes. There's a "power on" setting unrelated to the timer, so you can keep it on continuously.

No and there's not an on and off switch either. Best to plug it into something that automates off of temperature, time, etc....

Yes you can but it is not advised because if you turn it off by the lamp switch and have it on an automated schedule it won't work.

I have the same question. I have thought if using a switch but am not sure if it would work that way.

No. It doesn't even have an on/off switch. Just plug it in and let it go. Or not.

No, the timer interrupts the power from the outlet like a wall switch that has turned off power to the outlet/lamp. The lamp switch can only be used when it comes on in the morning for about an hour, like if you really do not want it on or to stop it from coming on, but do not wish to unplug the timer. Of course if you turn off the light at the lamp switch you will have to remember to turn it back on so the lamp will come on the next morning using the timer. I have the most basic model, if there are programmable models and you have one, I can't help you there.

You can control the on/off cycle bye 1 minute intervals yes but both outlet come on or go off at the same time. They are not separately timed. If you want to turn one thing on and one thing off at the same time you will need 2 timers.

You have to press the little switch. I don't think it will work with a timer.

Yes. You can override the timer and turn it off. I have four of these in my house, and you can turn it back off if you change your mind. I wouldn't make it a habit, however.

Yes you can,As long as the unit does not have a night feature.you will also have to wire (If the unit has regular light) the light,exhaust fan and heater together for the timer switch(Which means you have no control over the heater being off if you don't need it)unless the timer switch has an additional switches.

yes this timer can be used for that type of operation although it would require the use of another relay this is probably not best suited application

There is a button. On, off and night. It can not be individually set on timers for day and night light.
