We're sorry to hear about your experience. The Maestro MA-T530G countdown timer has a minimum load requirement of 0.3A for fans and 40W for incandescent or halogen light bulbs. Some new, energy efficient exhaust fans draw less energy and do not meet that 0.3A minimum load. If you have a new fan that doesn't meet the 0.3A minimum load, you might try the Maestro MA-T51MN countdown timer. This timer will typically work better with newer fans because it has a 0.05A minimum load requirement for fans and 5W for incandescent or halogen light bulbs. However, the MA-T51MN does require a neutral connection (which allows for the lower minimum load).

If you still have questions or concerns, we're happy to help. You can reach Lutron's Customer Satisfaction team at customersatisfaction@lutron.com, or call us 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so please call us any time! lutron

So far it’s great! So much better than the old twist knob switch it replaced. I just takes a touchto operate and it’s so easy to change the desired run time.

The Great thing about this timer is that you can never set it to run beyond 30 minutes. It is fairly easy to install even for an average DIY person. I intend to buy a few more of this timers to cover all the bathrooms in my home

Perfect for our powder room. I love that no one can accidentally leave it running for any more than 30 minutes.

Works great
Easy to install, works great using ambient light detection so my lights go on as soon as I enter the room, but only if it's needed.

Works Great!
I had purchased another type of timer for my bathroom fans, but they decreased the fan speed - It seems they were reducing the voltage. I replaced them with this product, and the fans came back to normal speed. I have these installed in all three of my bathrooms, and I love them! A little pricey, but I think the savings will justify the expense.

Works as advertised
Remodeled a bathroom and used this. Product. This is also the first timer I've used. It works as advertised. Making it possible for me to not have to worry about remembering to turn things off

Love it
I have to say this is a bit pricey, but is more than necessary in our house. For some reason our two boys cannot ever remember to turn off the bathroom fan and being at the end of the hall, we rarely notice it's on. They leave it on for hours at a time and often overnight. This has simple settings where we can set it for 10 (usually plenty) and all the boys have to do is push the button and it goes for 10 minutes and shuts down. With one minute before it stops it will do a quick 1-2 second stop to let you know there's only a minute left in case you think it might need a little more time to do its job. There's no annoying ticking sound like some old dial type timers. All digital, quiet timer that works. Again, it's a bit pricey, but we don't have to worry about the fan going dying from overuse or sucking electricity for hours of use beyond what is needed.
