Will it work with just the timer instead of using the light sensor?

There is not a traditional timer on it. You can set it to run for certain number of hours once it senses darkness. But not to turn on at 6 come off at 10.

There are two ways to turn it on. 1) manual on full time (stays on till you manually turn it off) and 2) let the light sensor turn it on and the timer will turn it off x hours later.

There is not a traditional timer outside the light sensor system. Since I decided to mount my unit inside, I ended up just pluging it in a standard $10 lamp timer which I can set how I want. I just keep the unit pack in the on position.

I'm not sure. I ordered this item twice. Once I received it and it was broken right away and once it broke within a week.

Not sure what timer you are referring to. There is a simple ON setting that bypasses the light sensor.

You can set it for how many hours you want it on, but will still go on and off with the sensor. Great little timer.

Hi Denton...should work, my install is behind a double switch plate with one traditional switch and this timer. This works well with LED lights, it has a battery to assist the switching action because of the small amount out electricity for operation. Others will not work on low voltage lights.Joe

I don't believe so. The only two buttons on the item is for turning it on setting the length of time and the lights

No, not without adding another switch to the circuit. The timer on the unit only goes to 20 minutes. The nice part is the timer resets every time it detects movement, I can set it for 5 minutes and it will stay on for as long as I am in the room and it detects movement and won't turn off for 5 minutes after I leave the room.

Any timer would work fine with the light. Hydro farm sells a 7 day digital one that you can have different settings throughout the week but even a cheap analog timer from Walmart would work fine with it

Not sure is your case, but in my case, the light switch was too close to a shelf and therefore the timer's plate didn't fit. I just put it upside down and works perfectly. Of course, the program on/off changes.

Yes, there are different buttons for timer settings. The light goes off after it has been on for the time you selected.

Sorry, I use the timer on the only switch that controls that particular light. As for three-way operation, the only things I would know would be what is in the instructions.

This timer does not have the ability to detect changes in light. This would require using a photocell in the circuit.

Yes. As long as the motion sensor detects movement it will. Also, you can click the switch to keep the lights on continuously for doing projects or for extended periods of time in the garage. Great feature!

It works with all kinds of lights - incandescent, CFL, Halogen, LED. I have mine connected to CFL flood lights. The ability of this programmable timer to work with CFLs is the primary reason why I purchased it.

I doubt it. I would look into another timer. I bought 5 in order to get 1 that worked.

Yes, it would work fine. The sensor is located in the post and below the light fixture. The frosted glass therefore will not affect the sensor's ability to detect motion. It can be set to come on at dusk for the amount of time you set. It works perfectly and mine is one of the best purchases I have made.

I'm not aware of this function being available. The nightlight looks pretty simple, so I would be shocked if there was any ability to control the timer.

Yes, you can set it by time, for a defined period of time, or using a light sensor.

NO, the light is just wires and lights, you would have to do any timers on the electrical side.

No I don't believe it will work that way. The light will be dim, and go brighter when motion is detected. I don't believe you can cover up the motion sensor without also covering up the Day/Night sensor as well, as it's all behind the same sensor "window".
