Review: Coleman Outdoor Timer - This timer is lightweight, works properly, and seems to be durable (I say this having owned it for only a few weeks). It has several settings (2-, 4-, 6-, or 8- hours, dusk to dawn, always on, always off). Overall the timer is pretty low tech, which I like. I don't anticipate malfunction later on. I would purchase this product again, especially at the reasonable price I paid for it. To anyone considering using this timer for holiday lights, I have a few thoughts (take them or leave them): I recommend that you consider the cord length between where the plug is and the timing control unit. If your goal is to use this timer for outdoor lights, particularly in a covered or semi-covered space (i.e. a roofed balcony, a patio with a trellace), then mounting the timer may become necessary if you cannot otherwise orient the timer towards the sun. If this is your situation, you may want to consider an option with a longer cord. Alternatively, you could use a small extension cord, if compatible, to help the timer reach a better position for mounting. I was not able to mount the unit onto the exterior wall of my apartment, which inhibits its ability to function properly under conditions where there is very little (but some) sunlight remaining because it rotates slightly. When it starts to get close to sunset, the unit alternates between on and off a few times before finally staying on. To me, this is no big deal. As long it doesn't damage the lights it is controlling, I'm happy. I want to emphasize that this is not the fault of the product, but rather a byproduct of shortsightedness on my part. Part of the issue for me was the way the outlet was installed (it protrudes from the wall and is too far from the ground to just set the unit on the floor) and the fact that the outlet has a cover, making it more difficult to bend the cord to a proper mounting position while still being able to reach the lights it is supposed to be controlling.
Review: two years still going strong - bought this two years ago, have used it for my outdoor patio lights everyday since and it works really well, havent had a single issue. My lights are bright, it was easy to use, the green makes it blend into surrounding greenery so you dont really see it and the sensor works well! looks nice and works great!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the ac plug straight or at a 90 degree angle? In the first picture it is straight, in the second (in the package) it is angled.**
A: 12-11-2020 - Maybe it's luck of the draw (?).  The one I just received has a straight plug, while the one I ordered previously has the (preferred) right-angle plug as pictured.  Amazon offered to allow me to return or replace, but I need the unit now.  I guess I'll live with it.

**Q: How many plugs can you plug into bottom?**
A: Well.... there is only one plug in the PICTURE so one plug. 
People are scary

**Q: Is there any indication this is UL Listed?**
A: I believe it is UL listed.   I have one of these and I have been using it outside, in all weather conditions, to turn on and off a light inside of the 5 foot tall light house.   I has been working since I purchased it and, as mentioned, outside in all type of weather and thru the winter.

**Q: The picture description on the 2001WD shows it comes with a remote...is the picture wrong, some say it has one, some say it does not..thanks**
A: It doe not have a remote. Our 59746WD has a remote.
