        A:  Backing up Josh's response: This timer apparently "leaks" some small amount of current when in its "off" mode, not enough to get an incandescent filament to illuminate, but enough to cause an LED to flash momentarily - about once per second with my fixture. So no, this unit is not designed for LEDs - and I can only imagine that, over the course of a year, this switch would leak enough current when off to register some cost on your electric bill.

          A:  No, it cannot. I was using it to control some fixtures with LED bulbs and this switch would not turn them off completely. I called support and was told this switch will only work with incandescent bulbs; CFLs will not work either.
