I use $20 digital dual-outlet ones from home depot. Walmart sells them too. You don't need anything fancy if you are just controlling your lights.

Hi, I agree with the 1st reply. Generally indoors I use all digital dual outlets too. I find them at ACE hardware, but they are everywhere.
Easy to program and they remember your settings even if the power goes out. Happy Gardening GrowIT!

If you don't know, how do you expect anyone else to know? What are you controlling with this timer? Lights? One light ... multiple lights? Fans? Nutrients? Co2? What? 110v or 220v?
I could also suggest that you purchase a $5 walmart timer, but I go no idea what you're doing with it. So it may or may not work for you! Good luck.

you need a heavy duty timer w/that hps. otherwise their is a good chance it will fail on you. I see it happen every once in a while.

The timers I use have a 15A capacity. A 600w appliance won't draw anywhere near that.
