I use "INTERMATIC" timers that I bought at "Superstore". I have six of them running all the lights in my system and have never had a problem. I think they are less than $15. each so quite inexpensive.
Intermatic Heavy-Duty Grounded Timer TN311C

$13.00

I use the Intermatic(sp?) digital timers exculisvely, very reliable with battery backup and can program for anything, even different times for weekends when the party is going overtime.

I have one of those too but I'm too dumb to figure it out so I just use the analogs.
