timer that presses a button
Is anyone aware of a timer I could buy which can press a button on a
certain schedule, e.g. at 10 am and 3 pm each day? I'd like to use such a device to turn a basement dehumidifier on and off, since I don't like the noise it makes when I run it all of the time. The particular dehumidifier I have has electronic controls, so if I use a traditional timer that switches the power off and on, the dehumidifer stays off when the power returns. Thanks for any suggestions! Dan |

I suggest you find an electronic repair type person (TV, Computer repair, etc.) and see if they can modify your dehumidifier so it is always on. (And then could be controlled by a regular timer.) Or they might be able to wire a regular timer into the push button switch. |
