Is it possible and/or easy to run two count-up timers at the same time, pausing and restarting each independently?

Yes. Since two separate timers in one package. Just have to press either T1 or T2 to select either one.
1937295
Yes, each timer is completely independent. Since I use it for the kids to time their teeth brushing time, they each can start the time for their preset time.

No I don't think so. There are two timers for two different time intervals for switching back and forth. But there is only one start/stop button. I purchased it and use it as a count down timer. When time reaches zero, it begins counting up. The audible alert has hi/ low/ off. And off is sometimes very handy. I use it for meetings, and can watch the visual indicator with the audible alert turned off.The question posted by Erik; maybe two simple sport stopwatches would serve your needs. I've had a Robic sport stopwatch for a different purpose for many years. That is how I was familiar with that brand name. No I don't think so.

Yes you can - just the push of a button overrides the timers. With another push, the timers are back on without having to reset them. Just make sure you don't throw the instructions away if you don't use them every day, so you can remind yourself how it works if you forget. These are amazing timers!

Yes you can. When timer is running; you can push "start/stop" button once, and timer will pause, when you push "start/stop" again, it will start from where you had stopped it.

Not automatically. Once you have stopped the timer, push 'clear' and the button for the timer you are using and it will reset to the original timing you entered. I imagine it would take a much more expensive unit to do as you describe.

Yes... counting up or counting down. Once started, just press the "START/STOP" button to pause and again to re-start.

Thanks to your question, I just discovered that it could. Set it at zero & push start/stop. It's a good timer. Hope this helps. - Guy

hi Vicki, I have not been able to get it to do this. I don't even remember reading that this was possible in the instruction manual but granted I don't have the instruction manual anymore. But after looking at the timer itself -there are a total of 8 timer settings. So you could in essence run it for 1 minute starting at lets say midnight, then it would turn off, then start it again for a minute 15 minutes later, and so on for a total of 8 cycles. But that's really the extent of the extendable programming.

Yes you can by taking advantage of the fact that the device actually has 4 individual timers. You would set timer 1 at 4 hours, timer 2 at 8 hours, and timer 3 at 12 hours.

Yes, by pressing just the start stop button timer 3 will count up by the seconds, timer 2 adds tenth and hundreds of seconds. Pressing the start/stop button again will pause and then restart the timer. Pressing clear will reset the timer to zero. I have through trial and error successfully mastered using this timer. At least for me the instructions that came with the timer were not clear.

I would give some thought to something like the Woods Import digital countdown timer. It is made for exactly the type of application you described. There are other timers there also, hope this helped.

You know, I am not sure. That's a feature that I have never used. Also there is no mention in the manual that shows a timer function.So My answer would be no.Hope this helps.Bob

This item is for turning two items off and on at the exact same time. If you want that you will have to get a much more expensive timer box or digital timer box. Another option is to just run multiple timers.

You can stop either or both timers, however it is a stop not a pause where it will jump back into countdown and it will not keep track

It always counts down seconds. On the timer at least. I haven't used the "count-up" feature.

The start/pause button at the top can be used to begin the timer, and also to pause it mid-task. We haven't utilized that feature, but it is on there. Hope this helps!

I don't know about a counting-up feature, but the timers can be started and stopped independently. And the alarms are different too, so you know which one is chiming if the timing is close.

I set as many timers as I need and then I activate them one at a time or in seriatim or all at the same time. I am not certain this answers your question.
