Looking for a Timer

*sigh* this is REALLY a 'no-brainer'. Get *two* timers.

That *is* great! I never thought of the removable tripper, so no on
selected. Only problem is that the 7 day timers are pricey, aren't they?

Again, good thinking. I had the two timers, you got the rest of it right.

The 7 day timers can be found for under $20... Got one the other day. Now I
just need the one day that runs as described.

Intermatic makes one -- their model "TN311CL". It's called a "heavy duty
appliance timer", rated for 15A. The Blue BORG (Lowes) sells it, here anyway,
for $9.97. Comes with 3 green ("on") trippers, and 3 red ("off") ones.

Depends what you consider 'pricey', I guess. ,grin

I was at the Blue BORG (Lowes), today.
They had 7-day timers for under $15, and removable tripper one-day ones, for
under $10.

Note: The *only* reason for the 7-day timer is to allow one to set thing up
"more than one day" in advance. If you'll never need more than 24 hours
'lead time', you can use a "daily" timer for timer #1, as well.

I've used that 'off only' tripper set-up for various things for more than
30 years.

It is absolutely *wonderful* where you have things that might get 'left on'
(usually because somebody just "forgot" to turn 'em off), and not discovered
for an extended period.
