COVER STORY
Summer’s coming and there’s a great option for outdoor lighting and patio heaters. Select your ON time up to 3 hours and get a blue flashing warning when it’s nearly time for a boost.
The original Timeguard BoostMaster Countdown Timer wthin a fused spur.
and rated for up to 100W of LED lighting. The big-display BoostMaster models join the original Timeguard electronic boost timers, which have a column of LED lights rather than minute-by-minute digital displays. These are available with or without integral fused spurs. Where more precise timing is required, or users want appliances to switch on when they are out, the FST Fused Spur Timer with fully programmable electronic time control fits the bill perfectly, neatly replacing a standard fused spur which probably already exists adjacent to the appliance you wish to control, so there’s no extra wiring. You can choose between 24-hour models or 7-day programming to cater for people’s different weekday and weekend lifestyle patterns, and there’s a Timeguard boost button to get a little extra heat or power without having to override the programming. the ability to control appliances that you need to come on and off every day can be a major
concern, and the good news is that adding the accuracy of electronic time control does not have to mean getting to grips with the sequencing of setting timing programmes. While that has become so much easier and more intuitive over the years, it is still troublesome to some of us, particularly older people. Timeguard even offers the option of an analogue ‘interface’ to electronic time control, with the added benefit of boost timing and interchangeability with old Economy 7 units, making it particularly popular with people who are concerned about managing their use of power at peak times. Time control is always the foundation of energy-saving solutions, and ideas like these help installers to provide something that will have immediate impact on users’ consumption and their bills.
