“Neat bit of kit. Vanity cover hinges back to reveal controls only when u need to access...otherwise looks good when closed. Decent range of control over my outdoor lighting.”

“Works perfectly. Nice neat replacement for the old ZV700 unit, MUCH better override facility than the old unit (just tap the closed front panel and it clicks on the internal button and toggles the current status of the light). Unit claims to work down to a minimum CFL of 11W. This is NOT STRICTLY TRUE because the CFLs I've tried with it so far (various bulbs from 11W to 15W) have just sat there flickering and flashing when the light is supposed to be off. I would expect this would trash the bulbs fairly quickly (and possibly the timer as well). Luckily my light fitting has two lampholders in it and putting in two CFLs kills the flickering at the expense of using more electricity. I experimented with combinations of bulbs, and settled on a 11W CFL with a 10W incandescent night-light which diverts enough of the leakage current (required to run the timer itself) away from the CFL to prevent it flickering when "off", while consuming the minimum possible power when "on". I would say that the "dusk" setting is a trifle over-zealous, turning the lights on rather too early or even if the weather is dull, so would advise anyone making a new installation to place this timer switch where it will "see" as much daylight as possible so it doesn't switch on too early.”
