# max-timeout [](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/max-timeout)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> The max amount of milliseconds you can pass to `setTimeout()`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A value larger than the one returned from this module, 2147483647 (~25 days), is too big to fit into a signed 32-bit integer, which is how JS engines store it, and will cause overflow, resulting in the timeout being scheduled immediately.
