Customer Reviews
tough timer
Wonderful easy to program.
No problems after 1 year of use.
Minus 1 star because:
-no backlight for LCD
-button is not as tactile as I would like (trashy feel to it)

due what I was looking for
I told my old man that someone should make a timer for a light switch (Porch light switch). Then I went on line to see what I could find. I saw this, bought it and I am delighted that it works. At home or gone, no more threatening house.

Air goes awry after a few years
Installed the Aube T1033 a few years ago. The demonstrate is now malfunctioning. I can only see parts of the display. Also, I hear a clicking noise inside the timer. I can't afford to keep replacing this whim every few years. I need to find a reliable electronic timer.

Works with CFL bulbs
Needed a timer that didn't forsake with my fluorescent bulbs. this has worked well for a few months now and the battery back up worked during a power outage. Programming is trusting. Installation was fairly simple and the included instructions were fairly straightforward.

The nicest light timer by far
As far as I be familiar with, there is nothing even close to this on the market.
I have had a few of these for many years. None have ever failed. Setup is straightforward and programming is reasonable.
Having the lights automatically modify for sunrise/sunset is great. If we leave the house at 4pm and come back at 9pm, the front lights are on.
There is a little bug in the programming (TI034). It screws up if it is programmed to cycle on before midnight and turn off after midnight. I forget now how it screws up, because I changed mine to turn off just before midnight. I expect it just stayed on.
I would like more flexible programming, but that usually comes with complexity. There isn't much space there for a spectacle.
1. Be able to set an offset (sunset +/- nn minutes).
2. A random feature where it would vary the actual on/off times by +/- nn minutes. This is a lad point, because it already vary some because of changing sunset/sunrise times.
3. Automatic adjustment for daylight savings. That may be a riddle, because they could change the cutover date, so maybe it's better as it is.
This also allows me to synch the clock twice a year. The timer does not keep complete time, which is surprising. I would think it could use the 60 Hz from the grid to stay perfectly in time. Maybe an upgraded likeness could include a received for the time signal from Colorado? :-)
This is one of my favorite gadgets. It used to be very hard to find. I am happy that Amazon is now carrying it. I often give them away as gifts.
07/30/10 Update: Aube makes quite a few models. It took me awhile to feature out the differences and I bought one wrong model. Some of them are designed for more heavy-duty work and controlling motors (033 & 035). I see that they now have a few new models with more programming options and higher wattage ratings. Most of mine are the 034. These are masterly for porch lights. Our front porch light is also wired in with the front outside plug so it can control external Christmas lights. The 500 watt max for the 034 is limiting. I may get the new 071 or 072 to substitute for that one.
Here's a summary of the model from the Aube website (aubetech dot com). Please excuse the (. . .). That's the only way I could find to make a table.

I strongly make one think you call an electrician.
cl+ll>cuzis4lyfe | Mar 29, 2008
yes

This is not something you desire to mess w/ if you don't know exactly what your doing! You could start a fire if you don't electrocute yourself. Call an electrician.

To be superior to use two switches, you will need both to be 2 way.
Wire as follows
L ---- Switch <====light between the 2 wires==>switch---N
Sorry for the illustration, this is the most desirable I could do with ascii.

Not unflinching I understand exactly what you're after. Do you want another switch, so that you can turn the light on and off from two places, or do you just want to move the existing switch? Email me at jerrywmc@yahoo.com. I am, by the way, an electrician.
Hey china!! I got your email, but it went to my bulk file, so I"m gonna answer you here. OK, you're going to impecuniousness what we call in the US three way switches, 2 of them. And you're going to need wire with an extra conductor in it between the switches. You should indubitable look up the wiring for it somewhere, it's hard to describe, plus I think you might be in the UK, and you use that screwy 220 volt system, which I distaste so intensely.
I apologize, I'm not going to try to tell you how to do this here. If I could talk to you, I might be able to explain, but there's in reality too much to it to go into here. I would call an electrician if I were you.

certainly under $150 to have a pro it would take about 20 mins just call a pro

You stress to wire it as a "three way" switch. Exposed wiring should be metal sheathed. Good old Home Depot has DIY manuals, and wise staff for your questions and materials too!!

How to install light switch to turn on wall outlet?
Sep 07, 2007 by Pregalicious Trophy Wife | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)
Loaded and nesting, I'm bothered by our lack of efficient light switches. Our retard landlords turned the garage into a head honcho bedroom before we moved in and did a frighteningly terrible job. No light switches ANYWHERE.
We have to cross the entire room in the dark to say on the light, and I've hated it since we moved in. We do, however, have 4 outlets in the room- 1 of which I would like to hook up to a light switch. But how?
I'm no electrician- but I have installed my allotment of dimmer switches and fixtures and know how respect electricity. Thanks in advance for your advice!
I already have those lights that you revolve about on/off with a foot switch... it's just an enormous hassle.
Just imagine- a prego dancing around in the nefarious searching for the switch, stepping on the cat, dirty laundry, tripping herself... it's not a happy sight.
Switching a bag and installing a switch in a finished room involves fishing wires through the walls. Not an undertaking for the faint at pump. Or the inexperienced.
Considers a remote control unit like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Lightning-Switch-Batteryless-Transmitter-Broadcast/dp/B0006B3Z1O
Plug the receiver into an outlet and plug a lamp into the receiver. Push the button and bingo, the light goes on and off.

Why does my light switch have three wires and a ground wire?
Dec 02, 2007 by weave | Posted in Other - Home & Garden
I am switching out a light switch and I found that it has three wires and a fourth if you upon the ground wire. The really odd thing is, I replaced a switch and instead of turning the closet light on and off it is turning the accommodation light on and off. Do you have any suggestions.
Thats the way brand-new houses are wired, everything is wired in a circuit, (a loop) it can be quiet tricky working out what wire goes where, you are to the fullest extent leaving it to someone who understands.
