Customers Say
The timer plugs are generally easy to use and set up, making them suitable for controlling lights and appliances. However, many users find the small timer pins fiddly and some units do not work as expected.

Timers
Once worked out how to use them they work well for me. Not great accuracy of time but as long as you just need a rough time they work.

Hi di, thank you for your enquiry.
The timers are _not_ waterproof so would need to be situated somewhere that they wouldn't be exposed to rain or mist (as this could penetrate them and cause all kinds of problems).
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Tinkerbell, thank you for your enquiry.
The segments are plastic and we haven't had any instances of breakage so far which would seem to prove they are sturdy enough for their purpose.
Ease of operation can vary from user opinion to user opinion, we feel that they are not too difficult but some would disagree, the size being the main point they make (i.e. they're fairly small so can be difficult to move individually for some people).
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Patsy, thank you for your enquiry.
Our technical information for the TMS24 (our code for this timer) shows the dimensions to be:-
60mm wide (62mm including the slide switch on the right side)
100.5mm tall
38.1mm deep from the back to the front socket face (63.3mm including pins and the dial which is slightly proud of the front socket face)
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hello there,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the Masterplug 24 Hour Mechanical Segment Timer - 3 Pack: ''We have not tested this and cannot see what its purpose could be as the Gas can not be controlled by mains, the switching would be done by a control knob, You can not switch on gas and then use a timer to start as this would be dangerous.''
Thank you for using Q & A.

Hi Catsassin,
Thank you for your enquiry. Our products are designed in the UK but manufactured in our own factory in China
Hi Abdul, thank you for your enquiry.
There are two points which cause us concern with this question:-
1. a Solar battery would be charged by the sun (via Solar Panels);
2. this timer has a maximum power capacity of 13A resistive or 2A inductive, so 290A would be very high (although this likely isn't the charging load level).
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Happy, thank you for your enquiry.
That will depend on the load of the pump, the timer has a capacity for 13A (3,120W / 3.12kW) or Resistive load or 2A (480W / 0.48kW) or Inductive load.
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi There

This would depend on the extension lead being used. The timers measure width 30 mm by height 100 mm.
Thanks for using Q&A.
