Timers

Not talking controllers.

What timers is everyone using? I have the white one with the dial and tabs, just want to see if theres any better ones out there that people like.

Are those less bulky than the white ones with the dial?

I bought two of these from CVS when they were on clearance for $3 per. Comes with buildin battery. I have the timer unplugged for 3 months the time was still good.

Another nice thing about it is there is "on auto" and "off auto" modes, which sets the timer to be on or off then resume at the next set point.

Honestly I don't remember but it was not that much I'd say between $10 $13.

I was using the Intermatic DT620 timers for everything. It has a large display making it easy for me to read, is easy to program, has 28 programmable settings, and is rated at 15A. I've used a few of the lower rated timers, but they didn't seem to hold up as well, even though they weren't running near their current ratings. The 15A timers have never failed.

I too have used the intermatic brand before I went to a controller

I got a pack of 2 of these from target last year after Christmas for $3 (75% off). if you can hold out it could be worth it.
