As for it stoping working have you chcked the battery in the back the timer will stop working if it dies. i was told by my LFS to expect this about every 8 mo.

I would google some reviews on these. There was a rash of fires associated with them in 2007 on RC. Just a heads up.

Which brand are you refering to? There were too many mentioned and I've lost track. Thanks

The coralife ones, not only was there that rash of fires/random melting, we were advised at a LFS in Edmonton that they frequently just died without reason.
