Installation a little tricky, but worth it...:
The size of the switch is a little daunting when trying to install, especially when installing into a box with a three- or four-way switch. The main point is to be very careful with tucking all wires away to enlarge the space you have to work.

Highly recommended, as this version improves upon the spotty record of the SS7 version.

Great little timer; work well with compact flourescent bulbs.:
I purchased the ST01C timer to control a post light with 4 13W compact flourescent bulbs and 2 exterior wall lights, each with 3 7W compact flourescent bulbs. In short, this timer works well and does not cause flickering of the bulbs because a relay completes and opens the load under control of the many programs that can be entered into this unit. It's really amazing how much Intermatic has crammed into something that fits in a standard receptable box. I have nothing to add to the many positive... more info
