Who have purchased 2 (actually 3 but the other one was a different kind) utilitech 0050024 outdoor timers and both keep resetting to midnight on monday as of the power has gone out. All programmed info is erased too. I have tested different outlet s and extension cords but it continues to reset no matter what. I'm now certain it's not a faulty product since all (3) timers have lost time or in this case reset itself to midnight. We hasn't even tried UPS outlet to make sure there is uninterrupted power. i believe it resets upon shutting off a programmed event.

It seems there is more than 1 Utilitec 014289 outdoor timer.
Each has same buttons, but different words under each button.

One has 'week-hour-min' on top row.
Other has 'manu-mode-prog' on top row

Manuals for both types appear on link below
