there's two digital timers for under 20 bucks although you get the better deal with RVF IMO. Relatively easy to find them. Lesson learned, eh? Don't ever skimp on your timers, next to your ballast they are the single most important piece of equipment I think. Can't grow without light, and if you run hydro, can't grow without a timer either lol (well, practically).

Sorry you had trouble with them, I bought one timer in that style and it lasted me 6 years before it fried. Never had a problem with it myself. The one I have now is a major PITA to set, but it's working well and I don't have to touch it save for daylight savings time. Completely different style of timer though.
Point is, to rasjeph, there's lots of digital timers out there for 20$ or less. I would suggest trying to find one with two outlets in case you ever want to expand and run two lights, or, want to run some extra gear on the same timer.
