What is the timing range? I want to use it for just a few minutes at a time. Will it work for that?

Honestly, this is best used for heavy sleepers, you don't want to snooze this because it is painfully loud, but if you are looking for a timer of some sort to go off like every 5, 15, 30, 60 min. while already awake I know of a good one

There is no clock involved at all. It doesn't care what time it is... You set it by how many hours and minutes you want. It goes to 20 hours, and in one minute increments.Hope this helps..;~)

I believe that may be complicated because there is a pre-alarm which occurs a few minutes before the actual alarm time. You would have to set something beyond 10 minutes and then ignore the pre-alarm. Perhaps someone else out there has figured a way to disarm the pre-alarm feature. This alarm works well, but I had to stop using it. It was so loud, my dog threated to leave home.

It should work for a timer or alarm either way. Just be sure to respond to it cause it does NOT turn off by itself until either you shut it off or the battery dies! Good Luck!

You time is for 1 or more minutes or 1or more hours and it is exact to scream and wake you (and others nearby) up. I had bought 10 or more different alarms over the years until I found Screaming Meenie, which is the best of the best. Paul Fig Fegen aka Fantastic Fig, professional magician

It is a count down timer which is very loud, and it will do exactly what you need it to.Good Luck! Herb

It is literally like the loudest alarm, it scares you awake! It is meant more for heavy sleepers, are you meaning to use it as a timer?

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

I have only used mine for several short periods. Time would depend on whether you run it continuously or turn it on and off.

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.

Previous answers correct but just note that when setting the time it moves in increments of 15 seconds. You can't set specific times beyond that.

Yes! It has a setting for 2 seconds and 10 seconds. The self timer is easily accessible, you can push directly on the button for it.

I'm not sure this is the timer for you. It sounds like you are looking for a count-down type timer and this really isn't designed for that. This is made to turn things on and off at certain times and I really don't think you will be happy trying to use it as a count-down. I don't know mutch about the digital timers but believe a digital might be your best bet.

Wish I had an answer. I've noticed that about mine as well. I set the duration for 10 seconds, and it only dumps for 5 on the timer.

No, don't believe anything under 1 minute duration is possible. Times are set in hour and minute of the day (HH:MM).The manufacturer's 1-sheet (2 page) manual is: http://www.aubetech.com/manuel/2/TI033.pdfI bought mine to control outdoor lighting and used it for years now in manual and automatic modes. I've found it reliable, including not loosing its settings during power outages, even when power was out for hours before going to external portable backup generator (e.g. hurricane Sandy).

You just put in 2:30, it represents 2 min and 30 seconds. It works for mine.
1812646
Yes. Just tried it. For example, 13 seconds would be press "1" then "3" then "start". If you wanted it to count down 7 hours, press "7" them "0" 4 times. Very easy to use.

Yes, it can be set for as little as 1 sec or as much as 59 sec. You just need to remember that time as added from left to right so if say you want something to go 3 minutes and 45 seconds you have to enter it as 345 start. I love the way this works because you don't have to hold down a button and wait for the time to count up or down to get where you want (and heaven forbid you miss the time and have to start over).

If you mean a timer: There is an option for 10 seconds and 2 seconds for the delay. There is also a "burst" option. Hope this helps.

Yes you can measure seconds. So you can set for one minute 30 seconds if you want.

I like this timer because it goes beyond just one hour. But what you are asking would be too complex. You would need to manually intervene at the stop and start times.

The dial on the timer goes from 0.......15.......30 etc. so yes you could set it for less than 15 mins. I have not tried this though. This little timer is well worth the money.

Yes - but only for intervals of 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes. If you want to set it for 20 or 25 minutes, you are out of luck.
