Can I put this charger on a timer?

The Leviton does not have a timer. The Leaf, however, is able to be setup on a timer to charge. I set mine up to only start charging from 12:01am - 7am to take advantage of discounted nightly electricity rates.

No, this feature does not exist on the charger. I can control the timing of the charge through my Volt - I assume most other electric cars have this feature built in as well.

my electrician says that you can. I didn't though because it only takes an hour and a half to charge my prius plug in.

I have found out that when the power is not on & the plug is still attached to the car...the car does a repeating chirp I guess to let you know that there is a problem.

Yes, you'll need a 240 volt timer. you need to plug the charger in to the timer and plug the timer into the 240 volt plug. Be advised my Ford Fusion has the ability to turn the the charger on at any hour you wish automatically. Thanks, Bing

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.

No, if you disconnect power you must manually turn it on. Cannot use it with an external timer.

Yes absolutely buddy. You can use a timer on anything... If it were a big high wattage light you would need a heavy duty timer... but as this is only 150 watts or less you should be fine with any timer.. just get a heavy duty though one. 12 bucks.. can not go wrong!

Since I use a timer to control the period of "charging", I do not have that knowledge. The timer, of course, has to remain ON all the time to keep the time. I doubt that the power goes off in the smartstrip "always on" group or the name would not be "always on".

Yes, you can. Programming it can be a bit tricky, especially if you are not used to digital timers.

This one has the soft push button, so it would probably not work with a timer.

Yes. You can use this timer. Check you're defrost tubes,make sure they are not burned out. First.

Not that I know of, this unit needs a trigger then it transfers power at a predetermined time setting. Look for a delay timer.

With the old style charger this type uses, I would think not. However, I have a power strip with a timer I use on all my chargers. I have it set for about an hours charge each day. This way everything is charged and ready to go with no over charging. Seems to work well for me and some batteries are several years old.

Is there a timer on this thing? example say start charging after 11pm at night where the electrical is cheaper?

If you want it off at specific times you can attach it to a cheap timer you can get in any harddware store for a few bucks. The reason you can do that with this unit is that i has an automatic power interruption/restoration restart feature. External timers are equivalent to power failure, and most brands stay off after interrupted power comes back - not this one. The timer built in selects short intervals for round clock on-off, which is not what you want.

I do not believe a timer would work with this item.When it comes back on after losing power it stays in the off position.

Yes, if it's less than 10 Amps. http://www.intermatic.com/~/media/Intermatic/Documentation/Timers/Spring_Wound/FD_FF_Instructions.pdf

I believe not. Mainly due to this uses a "mini audio" style jack. Other external timers will work with your jack however. I would search out a forum or two to get the answer you require. Sorry.

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.

There is no timer on it, but I see no reason why you couldn't plug the cord into the wall with a timer in between.
