can this timer operate LED bulbs?

Yes, the timer uses a relay (like a mechanical switch) to control the light.. any light type.I use mine with a regular CFL.

Its a switch...it controls electricity, it doesn't matter what the bulb is.

Yes, it should; I'm using a multi- LED light on it. I don't think you need dimable LEDs, this is on/off click, not a gradual lighting up. My first lasted about 8-9 years... This is my 2nd

I haven't used it in conjunction with a timer but it does work with a dusl til dawn sensor so I would assume that it would work with a timer as well as long as the fixture is compatible with the bulb itself.

If the light is a plug in, yes. I don't know if it works with fluorescent or LED bulbs though.

I don't see why not. It's basically an on-off switch. I'm using mine with a CFL with no problem (except I don't like the CFL's brightness or warm-up time). But the fixture works just fine in turning the lights on and off. I'm sure it will work equally well with an LED bulb (which is what I'm gong to do myself next time a bulb needs to be changed).

Yes, but I found that it works better with LEDs. This is just the control panel, but the opener that it pairs with holds two bulbs and one of them would keep turning off when I used CFL's. When I changed them to LED's the problem stopped. The problem might have just been a loose connection, don't know, but it works great with LED's.

Yes it will. I had to purchase this when I installed LED bulbs into my fixtures controlled by a timer that would not support them. This works perfect.

No. This type of bulb have an internal programing timer. It can only be controlled by a regular electrical wall switch.

Presumably, this will control LEDs. Check the Leviton site for newer models that specifically state they will work with LEDs.

Yes, I do not know of any reason why a dimmer switch would not operate a LED bulb that can be screwed into a socket.

You will need to check if the wires are interchanged. Mine was same. if not get an electrician. This timer works perfect For CFL and led bulbs.

If it works with a light switch it will work with this timer. It is just a simple set of brass contacts.

If you just want to run the normal daylight lights on a timer it will work just fine. To switch over to the blue night LEDs you would have to do that manually.

I suppose but there are other alternatives for that. This is designed for a fan light combo and has 5 wires to operate both fan and light. If you only need a timer switch any home center or hardware store should have that.

It should. This switch is designed for a 3-way switch, which in spite of the name means that the light is controlled by two different switches. Your switch is evidently a single pole, that is, that one switch controls the light. You can probably buy a less expensive timer for that purpose, one designed for a single pole.

Yes. But you will not get it to work. The knob is so difficult to remove and to re-connect to the shaft, that it apparently destroys the internal workings of the timer. We ordered 4, and could not get any to work. We have used the same brand of timers for many years, but these were worthless.

This timer can be used with any load that is under the rated limits. CFL and LED are just lower power loads. As someone else mentioned; this is not a dimmer and it only turns the load on and off.

These are standard spiral cfls. They are immediate on/off lights. I would have to say that they should probably work fine with a timer as I can't think of any reason that they would not. No, I haven't actually used them this way, but with my understanding of electricity and how it would work, I can't see any issues with it. The timer should do no more than open up the flow of electricity to the bulb when the timer turns on and then restricts the flow of electricity when the timer goes off, so there should be no issues with them whatsoever. I hope this helps.
