Looking for cheap minute timer inline switch

Hi All,
I have been scouring the web for a simple device I can plug into the
wall, that will turn a hotplate or other device off after a few minutes
(5-30). Everyone has loads of programmable everyday clock switches, and
there are some wall switch dials. But I can not find something I can
use inline with a wall socket that is simple to set and scaled to ~5
minute increments. I need about 4 of them.
Thanks
Michael
you might want to look around for second hand photographic timers such
as the old Gralab timers. A dial timer that runs in reverse and can be
set to from 1 minute to 59.
I see them at flea markets and yard sales going for as little as 5
bucks.
