Will this timer work with LED lights?

Not certain about LEDs, although I see to reason why not. I does nothing to the [house] current applied to it except turn it on and off. The device definitely does work just fine with CFL lighting, and that tends to be rather finicky about applied voltage, etc., unless you pay the extra $$$ for dimmable CFL lights.

I used it as a timer on my Christmas tree which has led lights and it worked just fine.

Absolutely! A great timer, I have one on my modem so no one can harm my computer when off at night.

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

I used a timer with my lights. It doesnt come with it. You will have to get one from your local hardware, home depot or lowes.

Since the timer activates with darkness I would say no. You could turn the switch to "on" and plug it into the lamp timer. Of course it won't show as brightly as it would from a dark room.

I have not used timer with led lights, I did use it with five strands of C bulb lights and it heated the timer. I generally replace switch with a regular light switch for the holidays, if that is what your doing.

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

This is designed to control led strips but if your led lights are the same voltage as strips and have the four wire connector I gyess it would work

Julia P., this switch should work with any lights that are on the circuit. I did not have LED light bulbs attached, but this switch simply turns an existing circuit on and off. So whatever you had attached to the circuit before will work the same. Hope that helps.

I don't believe so. The only two buttons on the item is for turning it on setting the length of time and the lights

My light stays on most of the time... I haven't tried it on a timer though. I don't see why it wouldn't work with a timer.

YES THIS WORKS WITH LED LIGHTS.....but the LED must say DIMMABLE on the packaging. I am using one as I write. It is Soft-White (and looks like an incandescent) 150 Watt equivalent-2200 lumens by FEIT Electric. In my area MENARDS carries these at various wattage equivalents!!!

Of course! What the timer basically does is cut the electric signal. So yes, you can use this to turn on or off a lamp or many other things.

Yes, I have this timer hooked up to my LED fish tank light so it should work just fine with your LED replacement bulb.

all timing switches need to have a neutral connector to work with CFL and LED, otherwise your bulbs will flicker. I found out the hard way. It's because regular timers allow a small amount of electricity to go through to power the timer itself which causes issues with CFL/LED bulbs which expect zero electricity when off.But from other people's photo of the wiring, I see a neutral connector on the back so the answer is YES it will work without the flickering issues for all bulb types.

LED lights draw so little power that I cannot be certain that the electronic timer could be compatible with this technology. At 40 watt draw, my timer just did not operate consistently so I cannot imagine how LEDs could be operational. My older Intermatic work perfectly with CFL (3 bulbs @ 27 watt each) but I hesitate to state with confidence that a very low "load" will work with this timer. Just an educational assumption.

Yes, I'm using an 18 watt CREE LED light bulb with this timer. The package states 40 watt minimum, but it seems to work fine.

I do not believe a timer would work with this item.When it comes back on after losing power it stays in the off position.
