Can you have multiple home runs on different timers with this transformer. Lights in the front come on at different times than back, or step lights?

There is just a single timer built into this box. If you want different runs of lights to come on at different times you will need more than one transformer I believe. Depending on the wattage of lights on each run, you might be able to use a smaller, less expensive box. Hope this helps.

Not sure about the multi times daily. I am only power on once a day and you set it by setting a start time HH:MM and off time HH:MM. I am not in the same state as the timer now so I can't look at the setup sheet.I am using it to turn a heater on for 2 hrs a day even though it is not intended for thermostat devices. That was not know until I opened the unit and read the setup sheet. So cold in my use it won't cycle so should last awhile.Will look this weekend and try to post a 2nd response.

Yes it does. I purchased four that light up a deck. I regularly set one of the color cycling patterns on the four and when I cycle the power to the transformer the selected pattern starts from the beginning and are completely in sync.

My son's response is that he thinks the transformer changes the current from AC to DC and drops the voltage down. With DC, it will only power a certain number of bulbs before all will start to be dimmer. He thinks that 12 on one transformer would be dim or not work at all. Hope that helps!

Not sure if this is helpful because it might be different but. I connected the following: On the timer yo have a yellow wire, black wire, blue wire and red wire. I have a three way switch but the way they did my outlet I had mulitple same colors attached at the same point. I connected one black wire to black. White wires to white. Blue to red. And one black wire to the yellow wire Do so enables me to then flick the push button to turn the lights on and off, or use the switch at teh front of the house to turn the lights on and off. When I use the switch the timer indicated if the switch is on or off. When I connected all the black wires together before I could simply turn the lights on only by the timer and not the front door switch. Doing the above configuration worked perfectly for me and has been fine for a year now. Hope this helps. -Nigel

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.

Yes you can dependent on the transformer. I use these professionally as a landscape lighting professional and there are some brands of transformers that it will not fit in, so check how much room you have.

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.

First you have to ask the manufacturer if those are dimmable lights. If so you will have no problem the transformer.

yes you can...most multi tap transformers have room for 2-3 home run wires such as 12/2 direct burial.

Yes, I have two of these timers and they can be programmed to go off and on anytime you want them to....After you put in the sunrise and sunset times then put in the time you want the lights to go off and on...The timer uses the sun times to adjust the off and on settings as the times change during the year.

I seem to remember that my door chime did not work when it was connected the same way as the original door chime was connected. I seem to remember that both the + and - leads from the transformer had to be connected to the new door chime, in addition to connecting the 2 leads coming from the door button. I do not use a back door button.

I assume you want to use this timer to turn on and off the power to the transformer? If so, I don't see why this timer wouldn't work for that - go for it!

I have not tried to do this. I am pretty sure the answer is no. The 2 timer modes only count up.

It does have this feature. I ordered two kits. One transformer died within a couple months, the other is fine.

Yes, you could set these different time with the same or different rest periods and then run them as a sequence. The timer is quite flexible.
