Faulty Timer by Uni-Com unable to set?

I have the same problem with 3 units.

It is sad that we are all wasting our time but the manufacturer is hoping that you will trust them with one of their other products. hope not.

It is unethical for them not to supply spare batteries.

I have exactly the same problem. There is a small 1.2Volt Ni-Cad battery inside that keeps all your programming safe. When this eventually dies, all the programming is lost. NiCad batteries are no longer made so a direct replacement is not possible. Sadly the effort and time involved in repairing this timer is just not worth it. Sad I know, and believe me I have tried and I am an electronics engineer who never throws anything away if I can fix it! A new (different) timer from Tesco costs about £10.
