I'm looking for a friend of mine, he bought a 520 from scrapper 23. Some folks have them...but won't sell them? Some have them, but there asking these goofy prices?
What...don't they make them anymore?

Coal,

The Honeywell's are very, very bad from what I'm hearing.

I can't see why a Honeywell would be any better or worse than the other timers.. My Honeywell is working fine.. no issues,

Way Are There bad The Older Honywell Mercury switch Timers are Probably One of the best one you can get
you can set them to run 30min or 1 hr You must make sure they are level or they will not work correctly They
where made for years until the B.S. Gov. Regs About Mercury started and They will last for years More so then
The New digital ones will New is Not always better

The Wil-Burt timers are 30 minute or 1 hour timers. They are high quality devices for which we sell almost no replacement parts. You can use an Intermatic timer, available from Grainger, if you're shopping by price alone.

I know these relays aren't recommended, but the 120volt, 3600 second timer is fully adjustable so you can go 36.5 minutes before running for 2mins. and 25 seconds. Or whatever you want to set it at. 10 million cycle lifespan. I use one and it is cheap and works flawlessly. :D Scott
