Re: [GSAS-Member] Timers Gone Bad

I get mine from Ikea, they work great for me and they are cheap.  The plus is 
they use 3 prongs , unlike most others I see...so if you happen to be in the 
Renton area, it doesn't hurt to check one out.

Subject: Re: [GSAS-Member] Timers Gone Bad

I've started using these, which are half-timed, half-untimed:

http://www.amazon.com/Woods-5522575-Outlet-Power-Strip/dp/B001DEF7SM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1259516040&sr=8-1

What's not shown in that picture is the cover for the timer mechanism,
which helps to keep dust, fish food, water, etc, out of it.

I really like being able to control multiple tanks (on the 4
timer-switched outlets) from one strip, and having the non-switched
outlets on the same strip is convenient.

I've not had any significant noise from the ones I've had for 2 years,
although YMMV.
