Used by the City of Mason, Ohio, the DC-809T-DN-W is a robust, wireless outdoor countdown timer built for maximum visibility and durability. This custom-engineered unit was designed specifically as a Christmas countdown display, tailored to meet municipal-grade requirements for performance, appearance, and weather resistance. The showcased version features a custom green finish and several user-specified features for enhanced utility.

Housed in a rugged IP-66 rated extruded aluminum enclosure, the DC-809T-DN-W is made to withstand harsh outdoor environments. Its black, textured powder-coated surface not only adds to its durability but also gives the unit a professional finish. The LED digits are outdoor-rated and incredibly bright, protruding slightly from the front to maximize visibility. With its 8-inch digits, the timer can be clearly seen from up to 400 feet away, even at wide angles.

One of the most user-friendly features is its wireless control system. The timer comes with a 2.4GHz RF handheld remote, giving users complete control without the need for line-of-sight. It has a reliable outdoor range of up to 300 feet and indoor range of around 150 feet. Housed in a tough polycarbonate case with a belt clip, the remote is built for convenient field use.

Key features of the DC-809T-DN-W include:

• Countdown capability of up to 999 days – Perfect for long-term events like holiday displays or municipal project timelines.
• Programmable time intervals for days, hours, minutes, and seconds.
• Remote-operated Start/Stop and Reset functions.
• Battery backup system – Keeps countdown data safe in the event of a power failure.
• Customizable mounting options – This version includes mounting tabs per the city’s request, but rails or pole-mounts are also available.
• 110V power compatibility – Standard junction box included; optional power cord available.
• Built-in horn – Sounds for three seconds when the countdown reaches zero, mounted directly on the side of the enclosure as specified.

Weighing approximately 50 pounds, this unit is industrial in construction, requiring secure mounting for stability and performance. While wall-mounting is most common, the unit is flexible enough for other installations depending on your needs.

Whether it’s for municipal countdowns like Mason’s Christmas celebration or industrial project tracking, the DC-809T-DN-W offers superior visibility, extreme weather durability, and hands-free control. It’s a perfect blend of form and function for any organization requiring a large-scale outdoor timer.
