Woods 59745WD 24-Hour Mechanical Light Switch Timer - White | Converts Wall Switch to Automatic Timer | Perfect for Bathrooms, Bedrooms & Outdoor Lights

I have read quite a few negative reviews but thought I’d give it a try. One of the most mentioned issues was that a wall plate could not be located that fit. I added a photo of the instructions regarding that which I will speak about shortly.The timer arrived packaged well from the manufacturer. All the parts and a few extras were included. My particular timer was white. It did not come with a decorative wall plate.The instructions were clear. Basically put, white to white neutral, black to incoming black hot (source), red to outgoing black(light).I did not notice a ground wire or location nor is there mention of it in the manual.The light switch is also made for a 20Amps and also works with all light bulbs. I have confirmed it works with LEDs, Fluorescent, and incandescent bulbs.The switch contains a 24 hour timer which allows me to effectively set a time section to turn on and off. Currently mine is set to turn on at 7pm and off at 7am as seen in the photo.The position of the current time arrow varies on how you put it back on the timer. Mine actually came pointing to the bottom left and I accidentally reversed it to top right; however, this has not prevented it from coming on at the set time.I believe it to be well built. It does not appear to be cheaply made. With that said, the wires are aluminum stranded.The manual switch that sets the timer off, on timer, and manual on works as designed.The wall plate I used was a 2 switch 1 Decorative wall plate made by Eaton. The instructions state to disassemble the timer by removing the time knob, and the face plate(held by 2 screws). Then you install the light according to the wiring diagram. After that secure the timer in the box. Place the decorative light plate over it and screw the plate to the timer. The opening aligns to the timer as you screw the plate and the timer together. Install the timer face place and secure with the two screws. Replace the knobs. The timer faceplate overlaps and sits on top of the decorative faceplate as seen in the instructions and my attached photo. You do not need to enlarge the decorative face plate opening to get it to install over the timer faceplate.All in all, I have no complaints. I would recommend this timer over the digital 24 hour timers as it functions the same and is less costly. I believe that the switch will last 5+ years. I will be sure to update my review if it fails sooner than expected.Update: 15 April 2020. It’s still running strong. As a matter of fact, I purchased three more. Two of which I am mounting in a vivarium. I still recommend them.
