My friends new house has many wall switches installed that shut off the lights after
15 minutes. They are not rotary but preset digital. Any recommendations?
I can’t find them.

Look near the doorways about 4 feet above the floor. ;)
Are you talking about one like this?

Or maybe motion sensor like this.

This is designed to operate a bathroom fan.
After you turn the light off the fan continues to run for a program amount of time.

My guess that it is the motion sensor type.
You don't want lights to automatically turn off if are still in the room.

Contact Fantec directly. I just purchased a product from them that Amazon said not in stock. Get the info off the Amazon add and Google Fantec for their phone number.
Another place that sells them is http://www.wattstopper.com/
Thanks!Navion
I understand Watt Stopper has some reliable products ... wall switch replacement occupancy sensors ... used in commercial applications successfully.
thanks Clew.
We have a couple of the Leviton ones 5-10-15-30 min timers for bath vent fans. I recommend them. Also had a programmable Intermatic that was junk and has been replaced.

I picked up mine at Lowes. In the light dept, near the middle where they have cutovers between isles. On the end of one of those cutovers.
