Leviton Countdown Timer Switch for bathroom fan and household lights, 5-10-15-30 min, No Neutral Required, Single Pole, 15A, 1/2 HP/9.8A Fan/Motor, DT130-1LW, White

Works great, easy to install looks great

I replaced the exhaust fan in one of our bathrooms with a much quieter model, with the unintended consequence of leaving the fan on for long periods of time because we couldn't hear it from outside the room, so I bought one of these to allow us to run the fan long enough to remove the humidity (etc.) without it running needlessly for hours. It was an easy installation. I installed it with the neutral tied to ground, which is one of the features of this model, and I purchased a special cover plate because the switch it replaced (and the adjacent light switch) are standard toggles. I also purchased the light almond face plate to match the other components. I like how the LED follows the remaining time as the timer counts down, e.g., if I push 15 minutes, the LED will drop down to the 10 minute position after 5 minutes, etc., so I can see about how much time is left, and I can then push one of the other buttons if I want it to run for more or less time than that.

This count down timer switch was easy to install and works perfectly. Our wiring has the neutral wire available at the switch box so that made the installation very easy. You will need wire nuts and a cover plate which are not included in the box but otherwise it’s a well designed switch with very clear instructions. Highly recommend.

I got 3 of these for our home recently (1 half bath, and 2 full baths) and we love them. Prior to this, our home was wired to where the light and the fan would turn on from 1 switch. I didn't like this setup as often times, we didn't need the fan (brushing our teeth, washing our hands, etc), and since our home is older, the fans are quite loud. We still wanted the fans for bathroom usage and showering, but figured there had to be a better way. Well, climbing in the attic and running a separate wire for the fan vs the lights was the first step. I used half switches and this got us by for a year or so (didn't want to add a larger electrical box). However, after showering, we'd turn off the fan as we didn't want to leave it running for hours after. After debate, we opted to get these timer switches for our fans and couldn't be happier. I did have to remove our old electrical boxes, put in replacement larger "old work" boxes, and wire in everything. If you know your way around electrical stuff, this isn't terrible, though time consuming. If you already have a separate full switch for the bathroom fan, this is a plug and play type of device. This switch does require a neutral wire (I believe all electrical boxes in my area for new development require neutral to exist, so this shouldn't matter much), but if you have an older home without neutral in a particular box, you can run it to ground per the instructions. 5/5 for function and aesthetics. The face plate was tricky to find (toggle, decora, decora), but Amazon had it available when the local stores did not. Overall, highly recommend.

Great solution to be able to leave the exhaust fan on and not having to remember to turn it off before going downstairs. It was a bit of a pain to install, but that was more an issue of me figuring out the wiring in the box. Once I figured it out, it works like a charm. I like that the indicator light moves down the time scale to approximate how much time is left. As another reviewer mentioned the buttons are kinda flimsy and get a bit cockeyed if you don’t press them in the center, but it’s a minor OCD gripe lol. Overall I am very happy with this solution and hope it lasts.

We replaced an old fashioned turn knob timer that didn't work very well and looked dated. This looks much more modern and works well. I like that it has the different times to choose from.

This is the first of these countdown timers I have installed. Now I don’t have to worry about the fan running all day in the upstairs bathroom. easy install. Reasonably priced.

I put this on a bathroom exhaust fan and it works perfectly. Note that in order to wire this up when there is no "neutral" wire present, join the ground wire from the switch and the neutral (white) wire from the switch to the ground wire from the house--all three capped together. That is not made clear in the instructions, so I tried to install this by simply capping off the white wire and leaving it unused, but that doesn't work. The fan will run, but the switch isn't in the loop. A Leviton tech support person got me straight. Other than a very small click when it switches off, this switch works silently. No tick-tick or annoying unclamping noise then it shuts off. It appears Leviton decided to sell the color change kits generically and not personalized for each of the many time options on these switches, but I can attest to the color change kit being very easy to install and that they look good. The difference is there are no numerical labels on the buttons. Instead, there are markings to indicate the length of "on" time. If you know your switch, the printed numerals are not needed. The kits are on Amazon too: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C9WCWVHQ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 Can't speak to the durability of the switch, but I will update this with any good or bad developments.
