Intermatic HB51K 24-Hour Outdoor Timer with Photocell – Weatherproof

Overview

Meet the Intermatic HB51K, a 24-hour outdoor timer with a built-in photocell that makes exterior lighting feel effortless. Designed for landscapes, holiday accents, and water features, this weatherproof unit helps you schedule lights to match dusk and dawn, so your outdoor spaces glow with minimal effort. Whether you want a welcoming entry, accent lighting for features, or timed power to a fountain, HB51K offers reliable control in damp outdoor environments. The unit includes two 3-prong outlets and a 7-inch cord with a plug, supporting a range of standard outdoor fixtures while remaining simple to install and adjust.

Smart control for everyday routines

The HB51K combines a versatile dial with preset options so you can tailor lighting to your evenings. You can select a 2, 4, 6, or 8-hour run from dusk, enable Dusk-to-Dawn operation for continuous evening lighting, or choose Always On for constant power. A discreet LED indicator confirms when power is active, helping you verify operation at a glance. Built to handle exterior use, the timer can sit securely on a porch outlet or near a landscape wall, and its weather-resistant housing protects the electronics during rain or mist.
