I plug my crock pot or other device into this when I want it to turn itself off if I forget to do so. So, I just install only one of the "off" trippers. I place no other tripper on the wheel. I use the manual switch on the timer to power up the crock pot and set the "off" tripper at some time when I want it to turn off. Then, if I am going to be really late coming home, I know it will shut off before a dry crock pot starts blazing. And, because I only installed an "off" tripper, it will never start up the crock pot again on its own. Other timers that have trippers have trippers that are all the same. If I used one of those, then the timer would turn off but it would also start up the crock pot the next day when that tripper was encountered in the next 24 hour cycle. I like to slow cook meats over 12 or more hours and I put it out in the garage so it doesn't stink up the house. (Lots of spices, chilis, and onions slow cooking over many hours can impregnate your drapes, carpets, and woodwork with aromas that won't go away for days and days...so I put it in the garage.) I could certainly envision a day when I set the food to cook, but I would get called away on a late night job, It would be just like me to come home tired, go to bed, and forget entirely about the food cooking in the garage. In good weather, I'll park my car outside. It could be days and days before I remember the food in the crock pot out in the garage. With this Intermatic timer, no problem. Fire department didn't have to come. It shut off the crock pot and won't start it up again, and again, and again like other timers would do. These timers will work with inductive, resistive, magnetic fluorescent, and electronic fluorescent, including twistie bulbs. It's got a 15 amp 3 prong outlet. Motor turns the wheel. Simple. Reliable. I like it. The operative logic of such a simple device is bullet proof. What if the power goes out? It starts up again when power is restored. But, oh, you say, your food will be rotten if it's off more than a half hour? No problem, Just look at the wheel when you retrieve your food. You set the wheel for the correct time when you started cooking. If the time is off more than whatever period you think is unsafe to eat? You will know. Review: Cheap but effective timer. - Turns light on at preset times. Not digital, but easy to use. Highly recommended. ## Features - 3 PIECES TN311 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B005MMSTNG | | Best Sellers Rank | 3,876,162 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) 4,826 in Kitchen Timers | | Brand | Intermatic | | Brand Name | Intermatic | | Colour | Color | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 3,291 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00078275127890, 07827512789017 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 8D x 8.1W x 8H centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.4 Pounds | | Item weight | 0.4 Pounds | | Manufacturer | INTERMATIC | | Manufacturer Part Number | TN311 | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | TN311 | | Number of settings | 3 | | Product dimensions | 8D x 8.1W x 8H centimetres | | UPC | 732454492048 078275127890 600682784191 719918344228 078275047518 790683736913 782298966700 735090735173 716080043782 077348324686 642008231576 759309507924 738759804944 711717434216 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Intermatic - **Color:** Color - **Item Weight:** 0.4 Pounds - **Material:** Plastic - **Product Dimensions:** 30"D x 8"W x 6"H ## Images ![INTERMATIC TIMER TN311-C 15AMP - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71KPLcfYy7L.jpg) ![INTERMATIC TIMER TN311-C 15AMP - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71svL7k7TaL.jpg) ![INTERMATIC TIMER TN311-C 15AMP - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71GhI+vkuHL.jpg) ![INTERMATIC TIMER TN311-C 15AMP - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81TLD8qx7wL.jpg) ![INTERMATIC TIMER TN311-C 15AMP - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+XLeNZuAL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I don't know how to set the timer.** A: Though the other person's answer works, flipping the order is the better way. Put the pins in first and then spin the dial one whole rotation before setting the current time. This way, the pins will activate or deactivate the timer depending on the current time.For example. Say you want to set the timer to turn on at 8AM and turn off at 8PM, and you do the initial setup at noon. If you set the time first and then insert the pins, the timer may not be turned on right away, as it should be, because noon is between 8AM and 8PM. If you insert the pins first, and spin the dial, the Green pin at 8AM will flick the timer on, and when you plug it in, it will be activated as it should be. If you decided to do the initial setup at 9PM, if you put the pins in first and spin the dial, the timer would automatically be deactivated by the red pin, because 9PM is not between 8AM and 8PM.If you follow the other answer, you may need to manually flick on ON/OFF dial on the top. **Q: When the timer trips from On to Off, do you get a spark?** A: Yes, it sparks (tiny), but it's internal at the switch. It should NOT be used in any flammable atmosphere. **Q: Is the device small enough to leave one free outlet or will it take up both spaces?** A: The timer will leave an outlet open if you plug it on the bottom socket. The top of the timer will reach the centerline of the outlet, so if you don't have another huge plug it will leave the top one free **Q: Should the switch be turn to on or off for it to be used as a timer? Either mine isn't working or I don't know what I am doing...** A: When you first set the triggers, rotate the dial at least 360 degrees . The switch is only for manual operation. If you rotate the switch to manually turn light on or off. The switch might stick in a way where the trigger will not turn the light on or off. The timer turns the light on or off by rotating the same switch you rotate for manual operation. Rotating the dial 360 degrees should reset everything. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Separetely designated "on" trippers and "off" trippers are a very important feature for me. *by R***Y on 28 March 2015* These are, as far as I know, the only timers that have designated "on" trippers and designated "off" trippers.
