DY – Thanks for the links. If i understand correctly, Rav Moshe refrained from saying that timers are assur in the case of lights in deference to the fact that they were already in widespread use for that purpose, and so relied on an established precedent which, although debated among the Acharonim, he considered to satisfy the Zilzul problem.

Syag – I acknowledge that the lines you quoted are not a clear expression of what I meant to say. At the behest of DY, I tried to clarify this in my next post.
