On the front of my house I have 2-60 watt high pressure sodium
fixtures hard wired to an intermatic SS8 digital timer.. I don't need
any fancy programming just 1 off/on each day. Is there a less
perplexing timer I can buy. Every time I try to change the setting it
just completely aggravates me.
Thanks, Richard.
