    Fire hazard FIRST TIME using the BN LINK 24 hour mechanical dual outlet outdoor timer bought from Amazon X001P2NIIJ: This was the first time we used it as we were going on a business/personal trip and were stuck in the ME till Mar 15th. Product was used to turn on and off one light an plugged into a grounded 120v outlet. When we returned after 6 weeks, product was buzzing. When we unplugged it, we found that the condition of the plug had melted and deformed one of the metal pieces and had started to melt the surrounding plug.
