Tiffcofio 28011 Outdoor Stake Timer, 100-ft Remote, Six Grounded Outlets

The 6-foot extension cord gives this outdoor stake timer room to reach a nearby outlet while keeping six grounded outlets together for seasonal lights and other outdoor decorations. Model 28011 combines a dusk sensor with timed shutoff options and a remote control listed with a 100-foot range.

It can also be operated manually, so the timer settings are not the only way to control connected lights. Would that combination make setup easier for your display? It depends on whether you want several outdoor plugs managed from one stake.

Key points

The timer offers on/off, dusk, and 2-, 4-, 5-, 6-, and 8-hour functions. Settings repeat daily, and the dusk option can switch connected devices on at night or off at dawn. The remote uses a 2.4 GHz frequency, manual selection is available on the timer itself. That gives you two ways to choose a setting, though the remote’s stated range is not a guarantee of performance in every outdoor layout.

Each of the six outlets has a separate waterproof cover. The unit is described as weather resistant, has a Type B three-prong plug, and is rated for 125 volts AC and a maximum current of 15 A. It is ETL listed and includes a stated two-year warranty. Those details make it relevant to outdoor seasonal lighting, but they do not establish suitability for every device or exposure condition.

How it fits

This stake is designed for outdoor use, especially when several decorations need power and a shared schedule. For example, you could connect a group of holiday lights, choose a dusk setting, and have them turn off at dawn, alternatively, one of the timed options can set a shorter nightly run. The separate outlet covers help protect unused or connected sockets, while the extension cord provides some placement flexibility.

Compared with using separate basic timers or controlling each decoration individually, a single stake groups the connections and timer functions in one place. A simpler plug-in timer may suit someone who only needs to control one device. This model makes more sense when multiple grounded outlets and remote or dusk-based control are useful together.

Everyday use

Buyers describe setup and use as straightforward and often mention seasonal displays, including Christmas and Halloween lights. Feedback is not uniformly positive, however: some report that the remote or timer works well, while others describe control problems, including the dusk-to-dawn function not behaving as expected. Durability comments are also mixed, with reports ranging from holding up outdoors to failing after a short period. These are customer impressions, not a guarantee of how an individual unit will perform.

A solid pick if you want one outdoor stake to organize several decorations and schedule them together. It may not suit you if dependable remote or dusk-sensor operation is essential and you would rather avoid relying on functions that buyers report working inconsistently. The listed weather resistance and outlet covers are useful features, but the product details do not specify an exact ingress rating.

Practical questions

How many devices can it connect? It has six grounded outlets, with a separate waterproof cover for each outlet.

What timer choices are available? The listed options are on/off, dusk, and 2-, 4-, 5-, 6-, or 8-hour functions. The selected functions repeat daily.

Can it be controlled without the remote? Yes. The settings can be selected manually on the timer as well as by remote.

Buying verdict

Choose the Tiffcofio 28011 if your main need is a single outdoor stake for several lights or decorations, with daily dusk or timed scheduling. Its six outlets, individual covers, and manual controls make that setup more flexible than a basic one-outlet timer. If your decision depends on the remote or dusk sensor working consistently, the mixed buyer feedback is worth weighing before choosing this model.
