How many watts is this switch rated for?
1308335
The manual says it is rated for 10 watts per channel. But I am running with about 50 watts per channel and no problems.

It's stamped on the bottom: 1500 watts. Satisfactory for use on a common 120 volt 15-amp household circuit.

This is a 15 amp capacity switch and will have no problem with the 500 watts and a standard two or three prong extension cord. I use it to power on/off my computer independent of my router.

Their web site says: SWITCH RATING SPECIFICATIONS: 1 H.P. at 125 V.A.C. 50/60 HERTZ 2 H.P. at 250 V.A.C. 50/60 HERTZ 20 Amps 125 V.A.C. 50/60 HERTZ 10 Amps 150 V.A.C. 50/60 HERTZ 10 Amps 277 V.A.C. 50/60 HERTZ 7 Amps 125 V.A.C. Tungsten

The switch doesn't state amp rating. States min 40 W Max 500 W. Will not work with LED bulbs.

This is a remotely operated switch. Rated for 15 amps. I use it to operate a relay and depend on the vehicle battery for power. Only power here is the battery in the remote to send the signal. It could be used to switch directly if the load was less than 15 amps. I personally would not trust it to hold up in switching a 15 amp load often and depend on a stout relay.

Manufacturer's rating is 300W / 2.5A maximum load. It is *NOT* for high current applications. I use it for controlling exterior lights on a detached garage. Look here: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/91WEInllQDS.pdf

Since there is no current rating I'm guessing it will reliably handle a MAXIMUM of switching 2 amps. Making it handle any more will destroy it after a not-so-many uses. Use this switch to operate a relay that actually powers the load. Same for your chosen relay: Make SURE you know it can reliably switch the load. The claimed amp rating IS NOT THE CONTINUOS LOAD IT CAN HANDLE. IT'S ACTUAALLY FAR LESS THAN THAT !

According to the socket stamp it is rated for 250 volts and 100 watts. I' running 10 watt, 20 watt, and 40 watt MR 16s and G4s without any problems.

The switch has an LCD display so it in itself doesn't draw a lot of power. Here are the specs on the load it can handle: Load types Maximum load ExamplesLights and resistiveloads (except tungsten)1800 W(15 A @ 120 V)* fluorescent lights* compact fluorescent lights (CFL)* electronic ballasts* sodium lamps* block heatersTungsten lights 1440 W(12 A @ 120 V)* incandescent lights* halogen lightsMotors 3/4 hp * pool filter pumps* fans Installation 2

Hello, the specs on the side of the box are: Switch ratings (50/60Hz) 1 HP 125VAC, 2HP 250VAC, 20 Amp 125VAC, 10Amp 250VAC, 10Amp 277VAC, DON'T MISS THIS --- 7 AMP 125VAC Tungsten (Regular Light Bulb).

I do not think using HP to compare or rate a switch works very well. The comparison needs to use amperage and voltage ratings for the equipment and switch. This switch has a rating of 16 amps at 120 volts. Use the 16 amp measurement to compare to what ever you want to electrically control.

I believe it is rated to 100 amps. You might check with Watt's up to see if you are within limits.

I use this switch on a pair of 150 watt halogen flood lights, see the switch specs below - 50 watt will work just fine. Halogen comes under the official designation of incandescent.Wall Switch (WE-001); On/Off function on devices up to 1000WWorks with incandescent, fluorescent and compact fluorescent lamps

I believe this switch is rated at 1800 watts. As long as you fan is not drawing more than that, you should be fine to use it.

The booklet says "Watts/Channel" is 140 with power protection on, and 70 with power protection off. I'm assuming this is "Maximum" watts/channel. However, I'm not sure how meaningful this is, usually the key issue is clean watts, meaning that as long as you run your volume at a decent level, not full blast with lots of clipping, "max watts" doesn't matter very much. Plus most of the time you're going to be running with protection on, which is why you'd buy this switch anyway.

Hi, the switch you mean the contact? The timer power suplpy is 12vdc. But you can manage 12, 24, 110 v etc only taking care of your load.
