I feel like I smoked myself retarded but I have a question. How in the world do you set the light intervals on a plug in light timer? I have a First Alert timer model tm291. I just bought it tonight and the box did not have any directions. Go figure. Btw I've searched here and google and couldn't find any info. Any help would be great+rep
Thx

push the little buttons down for the time you want it off then point the middle arrow to the right time

I got a different timer so idk if this'll help but i thoght it'd be worth a shot. I was getting pissed off when i was tryin to setup my first timers then i noticed the directions were on the back of the timer. Corse that was after i had figured the thing out and used it forever but....

Does this mean I have to reset it every time it goes off? Or would it just automatically turn on and off by itself?

It should have like two prong things, different colors. One color turns on the timer, the other turns it off. On my timer, there is a green one(ON) and a red one (OFF) Once u plug the timer into the power source its running. From there u just have to get the time on the timer close to the actual time(in the middle, just gotta get the hour right), then set ur pins in accordingly. Once u get it setup u shouldn't have to even touch it again till u switch to 12/12 for flowering.

no it will turn on and off by itself just make sure that you put the gray little switch things down for the time you want it to go off
