It should work provided the lamp is < 200W (!), although there may be a
momentary overload buzz as
the light switches on because when cold it has a low resistance, so initial
inrush current is a
lot higher than running. The timer could run fast if it is a very old
fashioned 50Hz line motor
driven device, rather than electronic. The differences between labeled
220/230/240 V should not
be a problem, especially if it was designed for 220V @50Hz rather than the US
60Hz (60HHz makes
it easier on the 50Hz transformer etc.)
