Effortless scheduling for indoor lights and small appliances The myTouchSmart Plug-In Digital Timer helps you streamline daily routines by turning lights, lamps, electronics, and seasonal lighting on or off at your preferred moments. After you set the current time, you can choose a ready-made preset or create a custom On/Off pair that fits your day. This approach supports consistent lighting patterns, potential energy awareness, and less manual adjustment. Designed with practicality in mind, the timer provides two custom daily On/Off times and three handy presets: Evening (5pm–12am), Morning (5am–8am), and All Night (6pm–6am). It also features a flexible countdown option (up to 24 hours with 1-minute steps) for temporary automations like outdoor lights during a party, a late-night coffee maker, or a timed fan cycle.
