Screwfix timer bargain
Just picked up a few of these plug in timeswitches at £2.43 each!
Screwfix item 50180. Only rated at 2000w not a full 13amp but quite a lot of features including a random one for security lighting. They have battery backup whilst unplugged or during power cuts too Just thought someone might be interested. At this price, I doubt they will be in stock long. Bob |

Yeah, that's cheaper than the segment ones at Wilkinson. MM |

Had to reset it a few months ago as well. |
