    Oh yeah. Did that a bunch at first. I used to leave my tumbler outside before I had a garage and squirrels ate my lid trying to get to the wallnut media.

    Perty perty perty! Loves me some shiny brass.

    Oh, BTW - these are cheap. I only use one pin, to turn it off. No need to "set the time" on it, just put the pin for however many hours you want it to run, I usually do 8 or so. And if you want to turn your lamps on and off while you're gone, you've got a timer to do so.

    Oooooohhhhh, shiny! I used to do that, now I set the timer on my phone, then when it goes off, I say "What's the timer for?"!

    I built a timer with a duplex receptacle with a 12 hour timer to plug in the tumbler. After I left one running all weekend one time while away camping. I find six to eight hours is usually enough but that there is some shiny brass.
