A timer is not a speed control.
Dude if you get a standard type single gang combo switch, single gang retro box, and a GFI outlet (you'll already have romex), you'll spend about $20. The most expensive part by far is the GFI outlet. You'll then at any time be able to run dimmers or timers. I don't understand how people don't have dimmers on bathroom lights personally.
Upside:
You have independent fan and light control so the bathroom does not feel like a motel, plus your power outlet will be GFI protected.
