Outdoor Lighting Timers

## Hazards

The timers have reversed polarity in the wiring, potentially allowing a current to flow through a consumer's body, posing a shock hazard to consumers.

## Retailer(s)

Menards stores nationwide sold the timers, from October 2000 through October 2001, for about $10.

## Description

The recalled timers have the model number "HOT100" printed on the back. The plastic timers are about 5 inches long, dark green, and have a timing switch on the front, that ranges from 1 to 8 hours or from dusk to dawn. A three-prong plug at the end of a 6.5-inch green cord extends from the top of the timer.
