The MT12 is a brand new X10 timer that is smaller and more modern in looks and features than the previous X10 timers available.
The MT12 mini timer features a LCD backlit display which displays the current time, house code of the unit and the status of the four X10 devices which are switched from the top buttons on the unit.
The unit is a powerful X10 timer which allows you to program 64 timed events, providing control and flexibility in your home automation system.
Power: 230V +10% -15 %, 50 Hz Backup batteries: 2 x 1.5v AA (not included) Dimensions: 55 x 150 x 110 mm Weight: 590 g Colour: White
Use this device to switch on and off your X10 controlled lamps and appliances at certain times of the day.
It is ideal as an occupancy simulator - use it to create a realistic effect of lights and devices switching on and off throughout the period of your holiday
It is also a useful security device - with the All Lights On button by your bed you can switch all the house lights on if you hear a suspicious noise in the night, which may be enough to scare away any intruder.

Does exactly what is says on the tin. Easy to use product. I'm currently using this in conjunction with an AM12U appliance unit to act as a timer for our boiler. The boiler is located in a garage with a standard plug in timer controlling it. Not very useful if you happen to be in when the timer switches to off, it meant a trip to open the garage and change the timer. X10 solved this problem with no wiring. The only down side is that the timer doesn't allow different timed events for different days.
