Hi! I’m looking for a replacement for a power strip that has a built in digital timer (by a common manufacturer and found at all the major chain pet stores). I’ve had bad luck with the brand I’ve been using (1 out of 4 made it past the first year). They get wiped out by a power outage or just decide to flake out. I have a need for something with at least 2 day and 2 night outlets. I don’t have a controller, but am willing to go that route if it’s fairly inexpensive.

I have a couple single outlet ones but it would be a clunky setup adding splitters or additional strips. Any thoughts?
 
A controller, while definitely NOT the cheapest option may be the best bet for what you are after. Buying used might be an option as well.
If this isn't a possibility, try a local electronics store. Best Buy, Frys, etc.
Fry's is a local chain to me in Southern California but they also have a website and sell just about anything you can think of electronics wise.
 
Ok, thanks. I checked fry’s, McMaster, digikey, etc without much luck.
 
I use 10$ wifi outlets to control timing and see the status of my equipment from my phone
