TI040/U Industrial Weekly/Daily programmable Indoor and Outdoor Timer, Gray

I bought one HONEYWELL TI040, then I bought a second, because they substituted the unreliable digital INTERMATIC.# No more geckos coming in and destroy by contacting because it is really hermetic# Even with disruption of our volatile electricity in the jungle they do not loose the program any more for days and weeks, like I had before.# The best: it is the CONTACTS for a SEPARATE Three Way Switch to override and switch on or off until the next program continues. This switch can be anywhere and it helps me for quick on and off near the pump when backwash or switching the Heater.# The buttons are working and working (My Intermatic timer lost the function of buttons within 1 to 2 years)# I love the intuitive handling, easy nothing much to remember and I can be quickly checking or changing the programs.# Industrial quality in comparision (I own also Timers from Tork, Dewenwill, Intermatic), most reliable with our many Voltage problems every day, only this Honeywell and Dewenwill goes on without errors.Having read other reviews before using the first time, it was clear to me to open the prepared holes with a good circular saw, never with a hammer like you can do with metal cases. No rust with that solid plastic. (Intermatic get quickly corrosion in my protected areas under roof but with metal bar door.)

We needed to move our pool timer from a covered patio to an unprotected area. Our pool guy recommended that we stick with Intermatic because "that's what everybody has." However, the price of a weatherproof Intermatic was really high, and I do not like the clumsy and imprecise tabs. Needing pliers or a wrench to change the settings felt like living in the dark ages.Since we were doing a lot of rewiring, we had an electrician install the timer. Simply swapping out the timer seems like a DIY job.The digital interface allows us to exactly match the low-cost electricity times from our utility. I can set a different schedule for the weekends. Once the timer is set, there is one button to toggle the system on/off (like the Intermatic). After a couple of weeks our pool guy said, "I really like this new timer."I was concerned about heat. The timer is facing east on the block wall separating our neighbors with no overhead protection, so it gets quite a bit of direct sunlight and radiant heat through the wall. It's been over 110 degrees for 30 days in a row here, and the timer is still working fine.Like others have said, the tabs keeping the door closed are pretty stiff. Be sure to secure it very well to the wall since you'll be putting a lot of pressure on the housing every time you open it. I'm considering cutting off one of the tabs or modifying it in some other way to make the door easier to open.

This was very easy to install. Since this is for an outdoor application, I used liquid flexible conduit, water proof connectors/interfaces and outdoor wire. I used water-proof connectors throughout and redid the connection to the pool pump as that was shorting out whenever it rained heavily and wouldn't stop shorting to ground for a week or two. This started after the heavy rains during the remnants of a tropical storm in the fall of 2011 that caused flooding throughout our area and left a film of dirt on the bottom of our pool. This replaced a mechanical timer that no longer worked properly. I will rework it and use it for other applications if I can make it work again. The product was very easy to wire up. I am using it in 110 V mode. The power comes in and you connect the common and the hot wires to the appropriate terminals. Do the same out to the load using the load out terminals which for me is the pool pump. You then wire in a 3 way switch into the switch terminals. I just wired all the grounds together in the box. It would have been nice if they provided a ground terminal for all the connections but this is unnecessary. The common and hot wires establish the 110 V levels or 220 V levels if you were to run that type of load.There are cutouts for all the connectors where the wires come in. I just used a pocket knife to remove the appropriate sized cutout. I would have thought that the cutouts could have been made easier to remove but making sure it maintains waterproof properties is very important so I would prefer that they err on the side of maintaining waterproof properties. I am very happy with the programmability. Seven days and one on and one off event per day which is enough for my application. With the external switch all the functionality I need was there. The override can also can be done internally at the display but the external switch makes it super easy. I can't complain, you can pay alot more for similar functionality in a digital timer switch box. So this did exactly what I wanted it to do and I am very happy. So long as it lasts a long time I will continue to be happy. If I can edit this review later, I will let you know how it lasts over time. But so far, no complaints.

I wanted to shift my water heater to off-peak hours to save some money, so this timer seemed like an easy way to do that. Programming was very straightforward, and having 7 individual on/off points means it was easy to do day-by day programs. During installation, however, I unscrewed the first terminal screw to make installing the wire easier as 10-gauge stranded wire is quite thick. The screw destroyed the female threads on the way out and wouldn't go back in. Upon closer inspection, it looks like this block is supposed to have captive screws, but the quality is poor enough that there was barely any additional resistance as I unscrewed it all the way. I've unscrewed lots of terminal block screws before and not had this issue, so this was an unexpected surprise. If you need to connect large-gauge stranded wire, you may want to get yourself some crimp-on connectors so you won't have to fight with wrapping the wires around the terminals.Once that was sorted, however, the timer has been working fine the past couple weeks. I've checked my hour-by-hour power usage and sure enough every evening when off-peak rates hit, I see a large spike in electrical usage, so it looks like it's doing its job. I don't think it supports DST, so I might have to fiddle with it when that happens, but otherwise it's working well.Oh, also it really doesn't appear to be a Honeywell product at all. It's kind of just the Amazon listing page that says this. The unit itself only references Aube. Perhaps it's a licensed product but it's not clear.

I am so happy with how this timer works. After putting in a mini-split air conditioning system and putting a smart timer on the big central air conditioning system, my biggest monthly peak-demand energy use would always come from the water heater. We never exceeded about 1.5 KWh during peak demand hours (3 PM to 8 PM) with one exception. Unavoidably at least once or more per month, someone would take a shower or bath during the peak energy demand hours. That one bath or shower alone would cost over $50 or more by raising the months peak energy use during those peak-demand hours. That's where this timer comes in.This timer attaches to our water heater and is set to turn off water heating between 3 PM and 8 PM. Now our bathing hours have no affect on our peak demand energy usage. One of us took a shower last night at 5:00 and another at 6:00. There was plenty of hot water available to us from our 50 gallon hot water tank with the heating turned off by this timer. Then at just after 8:00, the hot water heater kicked on (via this timer) and re-heated the colder water in the tank during off-peak hours. Just last night alone I saved more in energy costs than what I paid for this timer. That's a full return on investment in less than the first twenty-four hours of use. I know that because I logged in to the Arizona Public Service website this morning, in to my personal account there. You can see there, exactly how much energy you used there for each hour of the twenty-four hour day. Between 5 PM and 8 PM yesterday, the peak demand never exceeded 1.5 KWh. But at 8:00 (we were asleep by then) a huge 4.5 KW spike happened in our energy use as timer kicked on and the colder water in the tank was re-heated during off-peak hours. This spike is typical when we use that much heated water. But now, It'll never happen again during peak demand hours. The affect on our lifestyle is no effect at all, except we save money.I hired an electrician to install this timer so that the job would look professionally done. The timer was very easy to program with a five-minute learning curve. We used the external switch feature so that my non-techie sweetheart could turn the timer on and off herself if necessary, without needing to open the box and figure out how to use the control buttons there if she ever needs to turn the timer on or off herself.

Works as intended. After a year of use it has made our pool more usable because the pump runs on a schedule, instead of when I am home to turn it on/off. No issues w/ algae blooms, and pool warms up by running pump in the middle of the day w/ the solar cover in place (recirculates cold water from the deep end up to the solar cover, where it is warmed). Must know how to do somewhat complex electrical work, using water-tight fittings, but otherwise, installation was easy. Easy to program, and override with a manual On/Off button.

This is one of those items that just can't be reviewed a week after installation. I purchased this timer 10 months ago.The timer itself works flawlessly and despite having power outages that have lasted up to 4 hours the timer didn't miss a beat. I don't know how log the capacitor will keep the clock running but it's good for the run of the mill outages. There are multiple timers and programming them is not as intuitive as I thought it would be but it's not difficult at all. The box is very good and has two latches which is a love/hate thing with me because I would like to be able to open the box up with on hand.It works with 120/240 as long as your 240 is 2x120 legs. I don't know if it will handle a single 240 leg or not so as a questions here, someone might know. All in all this timer is a great bargin compared to the previous Intermatic timers I had which didn't function nearly as well as this timer does.My only wish is that the box had side knockouts so retro fitting them into previous installations was easier.Other than that this has been a great purchase.

This timer was purchased in September 2024, used for 2 months in the fall then shut down for the winter in October and pump removed for winterizing. When reinstalled in early May 2025, the timer no longer functions as designed. It is set to turn on at 7:00 a.m. and turn off at 8:30 a.m., on again at 6:00 p.m. and off again at 7:30 p.m. it now runs for 4 minutes then shuts off 24 hours per day, after reseeting to factory settings and reprogrammed. Randomly it turns back on throughout the day at any given time and runs for 4 minutes then it shuts off. All wiring is done by a certified electrician and has been verified as in new condition. It is pushing a two horsepower Goulds pump and was working flawlessly last fall. Paying $86 for a timer that lasts for 3 months of use is unacceptable. Hoping the company will read this and contact me so I can send it back. Time will tell as only a 30-day window on AMZ. Very disappointing, should have bought an off-brand for half the price.

Considero que es de una muy buena calidad. La operación y la programación es muy sencilla y eso lo hace fácilmente manipulable. Al momento no me ha dado ningún problema. Lo recomiendo.

Easy to install and it’s been working flawlessly for years now highly recommended for anybody looking for a seven day programmable timer. Right now.

This product i found was really easy to install. I am a fully licensed electrician, but I do feel that anyone would be able to put this up and wire it in because of how basic it is. The programming on the other hand I find it way to sensitive. You could easy throw off the timing by accidently clicking a button. I would hope that they change it to a push and hold style to change rather then the way they got it now. They do use the push and hold to go from auto to manual and push and hold to change programs however it would make more sense if they reversed those. Product is really good however and those things that I pointed out are just my preference faults nothing major

Lo utilice para controlar el sistema de calentamiento solar de la alberca. Facil de instalar y hasta este momento funciona muy bien, tal y como lo que queria.

Excelente relacion calidad presioMuy recomendado
