So I got the zilla power center timer so I didn't need to deal with turning lights on and off every day, but it's not working. I read the instructions, watched a video, and it looks like I've set it up perfectly. It doesn't turn on though. Beginning to think I got a defective one. It's only the day lights that won't turn on, the constant ones seem to work.
So, does it have to be a 12 hour cycle, or can it be more or less? I have it at 14 hours a day.
Light fixtures need to be turned on right? All the time? Then they'll turn on at the proper time. I've got mine turned on all the time so that the light bulbs can go on when the timer is set to, but they stay dark unless I unplug them and plug them into different outlets aka don't work when plugged into the timer but work anywhere else.
Any general tips or troubleshooting tips?
