Thirty second TO's are 30 seconds every time I've seen games.

Full timeouts may be longer, depending on the media agreement.

BTW, do you know how long a "full" timeout is (in a non-covered game)?
FULL time out - 50 seconds (at least in FIBA) coaches think that it is 60 seconds, but it is 50 for the time out and 10 to get on the court.
