Could it cause problems to switch back and forth between 5min. and 6 hour setting every few days?

I don't think so. I think this is a great product, but it's a bit persnickety. It's a small company, and they give excellent customer service. The most common problem is that all four lights start flashing in rotation. you either must put a new battery in or remove and replace the existing one if it is fresh.

No...not on mine. It stays at five minutes until you change it. What are describing would me a malfunction. Mine has worked flawlessly.

I have not experienced that but one thing I found that is disturbing is that when the closing sequence has started and the unit beeps, if you manually close the door, it opened it back up when the sequence came to the end. That could be a problem if one leaves without checking. Also this gadget works well but it goes through batteries pretty quick and the flashing red light does not tell you which unit, the door sensor or the wall unit, needs replacement. Anyway, so far so good but if you do not have an outside keypad and forget your closer, this thing will lock you out.

No it should not matter if the 6 hr setting functions exactly the same way as the 5 & 15 min timers do. Most likely it does.

I don't think it would be a problem. I have changed settings a few times but usually leave at 15 minutes.

This device has 9 setpoints for on/off times, but it will not automatically vary the time. You may want to get 2 or 3 for different rooms, all set for different times. I love mine, you dont have to hard wire it, very easy to program, dependable, and well worth the price. Highly recommend it.

This timer is designed to do specifically what you are asking in your question.You can set it up to do it from 6-9 once, daily, or a few days a week.

No, not really. You can only set it to go off a certain number of hours and minutes from the time that you set it. If it was the same number of hours everyday from when you were setting it to when you wanted it to go off you can just re-start easily to count down again once it has gone off.

I am not sure if you can program 6 times per hour and my equipment isn't available to me at this time. I will try to remember to review the manual and get back to you, I would keep looking as I think this unit wouldn't give that many setting. I have three of these times and they are great.Steve

You can set the hours, minutes, and seconds separately - so yes, it would be possible to do that. However, to set it up and start it takes pressing several buttons so it may not be the best tool for timing such short intervals.

Mine seems to go off completely every hour, and yesterday for a while it wouldn't go to the 5th setting.

No. Basically you have 7 different days you can program an on time and an off time. At the end of day 7, it goes back to day 1. So basically as the sunrise and set change, if you want your timer to change with it, you'll manually need to re-program the device. I usually need to reprogram mine 4 times a year (two of them are when we switch to and from Daylight Saving time) so the lights come on and off close to sunset and sunrise.

That is not possible. It is either on all the time or 1, 2,4 and 8 hours. If you want to set it for whatever time you want, I would get a a 24 hour timer.

Yes I have mine set for 6am for 3hrs and 6pm for 3hrs. Mine is a 4 station.Should be able to set 6 station the same

If you have a pretty regular schedule, (9-5 job, don't usually wake up in the middle of the night, etc) you might be able to put it on a timer (preferably a 7 day timer) and program when you may need a warm seat. Also, most timers have a manual override for those unexpected occurrences. I don't have mine yet, but it looks like the controller is a manual, switch style that remembers where it was set when power is removed.

Yes, you simply set the program to turn on at 5pm and off at 11pm the same day. This program can be set up for each day or M-F and/or different on Sat and Sun. There is even a Tues-Sat day window that can be used. Multiple time periods are programmable.

I don't know that I would leave anything running 24/7 but don't see why you couldn't. What I did was get a timer so it would go on and off regularly without any effort on my part. That way it can run at the most important times for four hours three times a day.

Seth , I have had this a number of years now. . I recall that you can program a couple seperate on off times but you can't zone those times . I believe you will need two seperate units or a second timer of some sort that would switch the zones . You will have to research that concept.

Yes, it will continue your setting until you turn it off or reset the schedule.

Unfortunately no. You can only program the device to run 4 times a day, not every 5 minutes.
