Just installed the EWZ201C to manage my outdoor lighting and wow, what a difference! At first, programming the sunset/sunrise feature was tricky - kept getting stuck with lights staying on all day when sunrise happened before my 6:45am timer.
But here's the game-changer: using two-channel mode! By wiring both channels in series, I set Channel 2 for dusk-to-dawn and Channel 1 for my specific 6:45am-9pm schedule. Now lights only come on when BOTH conditions are met. Genius workaround!
The auto daylight savings adjustment is perfect for someone forgetful like me. The Noryl plastic enclosure feels sturdy enough for outdoor use, though I wish they offered stainless steel. Installation does require electrical know-how - definitely not plug-and-play.
After 3 months, the super capacitor keeps time perfectly with zero drift. No more monthly battery changes like my old timer! Worth every penny for reliable, automated lighting control.
