Is it okay to run 2 timers off one transformer?

I have done it....

Look at the rating on the transformer. Your 3A draws about 200Ma.

The voltage needs to be 9-12v AC or DC and the minimum amp is 400mA for two timers.

I use one for the whole salon in my installs, not the ones that are provided of course.

Brian,

What type of transformer did you use? We are in the process of installing our Tmax timers and they make them so funny with the plug for the outlet, yet the timers get set in the wall. Anyway, how do you usually install them then?

Thanks,
