    Looking for a plug in timer with a boost button. Don't know if such a thing even exists. Had a Google but not finding anything.

    TIA Kat1170

    Is it just for a standard 13amp plug top?
    Do you want it to connect to wifi/Alexa/Google home?

    Sonoff S20. If you have wifi to set it up. You can set a countdown time for whatever time you like and then when you turn it on it will turn off after that period of time.

    No WiFi where it's going. Timeguard TGBT6 might do for now. Need a boost switch more than a timer, just would have been handy if timer was there also. Thanks everyone for the replies

    You could set it up elsewhere. It "remembers" it's settings.
