I really wish it had a timer on it.
I tend to let it set for *hours* at times.

You can always use one of those regular household
interval timers that fits in a wall box, spliced into a
regular extension/power cord. There are both mechanical
and electronic versions. They start around $10.

I was looking for something like this for dumb battery
chargers and other things.

Except this seems to have triac control and minimum load
requirment. 30 watts

The mechanical ones are cheaper, and use plain old mechanical contacts.
Lowes has them on the shelf, with two different ranges of time.

Try to search for this:
