Tethered remote timer device

A timer device comprising:

• a timer housing;
• an AC-DC power supply which converts alternating current into direct current;
• a microcontroller;
• an integrated timer;
• an input keypad;
• a display;
• a tether devoid of alternating current, which delivers direct current from the timer housing to a tethered remote, wherein the tether may vary in length, structure, and composition;
• a tethered remote;
• a tethered remote housing;
• wherein the tethered remote receives direct current from the tether;
• wherein the tethered remote is devoid of alternating current, wherein the tethered remote comprises a pushbutton;
• wherein the pushbutton selects a preferred brightness level and a state of at least one connected light;
• wherein the integrated timer may be user controlled from at least two different input locations connected physically and electrically by the tether, the two different input locations include:
• the input keypad located within the timer housing, and the tethered remote;
• wherein the tethered remote is devoid of the integrated timer or any timer;
• and
• a user may move the physical location of the tethered remote without removing the timer housing from a wall mounted electrical outlet, examples but not limitations include repositioning the tethered remote from a nightstand, to a bedroom floor, to a bed frame, to a footboard, or to a headboard of a bed;
• and
• a dimming circuit unit for reducing the voltage supplied from a power source.
