Countdown Timer Switch for Bathroom Fans
The Leviton DT160-1LW replaces a standard wall switch with a countdown timer that automates bathroom exhaust fans, heat lamps, towel warmers, hot tubs, saunas, attic fans and lighting. It offers four preset buttons for 10, 20, 30 or 60 minutes of operation. The switch turns the load on with a press and shuts it off automatically when the selected time expires.
No Neutral Required Wiring with Green Flex Sleeve
The innovative green flex sleeve allows the device to connect to ground when no neutral wire is present in the wallbox, or it can be removed to connect to a neutral wire if one is available. A ground wire is required for installation. The switch supports 15A resistive, 1/2 HP or 9.8A fan/motor loads, 600W LED/CFL, 1800W incandescent/halogen and 1200VA MLV/ELV/fluorescent at 120 volts.
Shallow Design and Interchangeable Line Load Wires
The shallow 1.3 in depth fits easily into standard wallboxes. Two black wires can be interchanged between line and load to help prevent miswiring during installation. Faceplate colour can be changed using DTKIT accessories. Not suitable for circuits lacking a ground wire or for loads exceeding the listed ratings.

Questions about this item
What does the 10-20-30-60 minute range actually do when I press a button?
Pressing any of the four preset buttons turns the connected load on for that exact number of minutes, then switches it off automatically; the adjacent green LED stays lit while the countdown is running.
The switch is rated 15 A at 120 V — what load types does that cover in practice?
It handles 600 W LED or CFL, 1800 W incandescent or halogen, 1200 VA MLV, ELV or fluorescent ballasts, and ½ HP or 9.8 A fan and motor loads on a single-pole 120 V circuit.
The body measures 2.4 in by 3.96 in by 1.3 in — will it fit a standard wall box without crowding?
Yes, the shallow profile is designed to fit a standard single-gang wall box; two interchangeable black wires and a green-flex sleeve that can connect to ground or neutral give flexible wiring room.
