    So I got the ClairLite finally. The timer settings are fine I guess but my old UV lamp just had an on/off switch and I set a separate timer myself. Does the auto shutoff actually save time or is it just another thing to forget to set before leaving the room? Wondering if I’m overthinking it.

    Honestly I just leave mine on the longest timer and walk away. The auto shutoff is more about not cooking the room than saving time. Forgetting to set it isn’t really an issue if you just pick one setting and stick with it.

    I think you might be overthinking it. The timer is just peace of mind so you don’t accidentally leave it running for hours.

    I just hit the longest timer and leave. Auto shutoff is nice so the thing isn’t running for two hours if I get distracted. Not really a time saver, more of a safety net.

    I think it’s just easier to hit the timer and not think about it. My old lamp needed a separate kitchen timer so I’d remember to turn it off, and I definitely forgot more than once. The ClairLite’s auto shutoff is more of a safety net than a time saver, but it’s nice not having to babysit it. You’re probably overthinking it.

    I just treat the timer like a safety thing more than a time saver. Kind of nice to not have to remember to go back and turn it off.

    I wouldn’t worry about forgetting to set it. The timer is more about not having to run back to the room to turn it off.

    I think it’s probably more for safety than anything else. Not having to remember to turn it off is kind of nice if you get distracted.

    Huh, I just set the longest timer and walk away. I don’t really think about it as saving time, more like I don’t have to worry if I forgot to turn it off. But I can see how it’s one more button to press if you’re used to just flipping a switch.

    I just set it for the longest one and leave. Not something I really think about. Feels like a fine enough system to me.

    It’s not that deep. Just set the timer and walk away. Saves me from having to babysit the thing, which was the whole point of switching.

    I set my old one with a plug timer, so the auto shutoff on this thing just feels like doing the same job but with extra steps. Not really saving time if I still have to mess with the timer before I leave.

    I just set mine and walk away, honestly it’s not something I think about much. The timer is handy if you get distracted and leave the room, but it’s not a huge deal either way. I wouldn’t stress over it.

    I just leave mine on the longest setting and don’t think about it. The remote is nice so I can start it from the door and not have to touch it again. Works fine for me.

    I usually just set mine for the longest timer and turn it on when I leave the room. The auto shutoff is nice because I don’t have to remember to turn it off later, but it’s not like it saves a ton of time or anything.

    I think it depends on what you’re used to. I set mine for the longer time and that’s it, never really had an issue remembering it before I leave. It’s one less thing to keep track of for me.

    Alright, I’m over it. The replies make sense. Set it and forget it, same as before. Not gonna overthink a timer.
