Seconds & Timers

[onthaherb]

What are my options for controlling water pumps to the second? I want to setup a secondary res with H2O&dripclean that turns on for 15 seconds after every feeding to clear my drippers.

The dial style cycle timers aren't very precise and they can't be set for 15sec ON, 4days OFF, for example.

Mistking.com they have digital timers, so far best I can find especially for the price. I'm using one right now for the first time.

You can set it for 9 on and off events. You can set it to run for any amount of time down to a second at any time of the day each on/off event can be for different durations. I found this timer in HGO's things I learned about dtw in coco thread.

I looked another but couldn't find it, any idea of the max OFF time on the DRT?

I believe this is the timer that Ekomsi was referring to - he put an extra "a" in the url name. Titan Apollo 15 times down to the second, but gives a maximum of 12 hours off.

nice rives, i was wondering what he was talking about and why his link didn't work. Seems like a good deal if they are reliable.
