This is the Titan Timer that i use.

On the package it says to not exceed 1000 watts. I ignored the fine print and plugged a wall mount fan into the timer along with one of my 1000 watt lamps. It shorted out a month or so later. If you do pick up a similar timer....don't push your luck....lol.

The titan timer i mentioned is a 15 amp timer. I was barely pulling 10amps when i had the fan and ballast plugged in and the timer died. The one you use must be of better quality? :shrug:

Now my lamps are hardwired into a 40amp timer.
