So, I switched to electronic ones. The brand I've found in most
hardware stores is Intermatic. My wife just picked another one up for
the Quarantine tank. It specificaly says "Controls all types of loads,
such as lamps (including flourescent), tv's..."
It's model DT7C. Intermatic is in Spring Grove, Ill 60081
(For you non USers, I'm guessing this is useless)
