Rain Bird 1ZEHTMRP Premium Professional Grade Electronic Digital Hose End Timer/Controller, One Zone/Station, Battery Operated, Digital with Brass Inlet/Outlet

Due to recent lawn repair for cable work, we got a section of new sod. Happens to be dry season in SoFlo which is ultra hot and dry this year. Irrigation pump died and it’s not really worth replacing. Sod immediately started to die so I setup a hose end sprinkler which has been a pain to remember to turn on/off each evening. After looking up options for timers, I decided a simple mechanical wasn't really much of an improvement and we certainly don’t need a high end wifi type, seemed like a basic digital type is best bang for buck for simple needs and this unit might be worth spending the extra since it’s the only one I found with brass inlet and outlet which will hold up to the extreme uv exposure here better than plastic. Figure we will need it at new house later this year to water the new lawn so hoping the rest of it holds up as well as the brass fittings. Anyway, unit feels well made, took all of maybe 5 min to setup. Instructions are not really needed but available online. Just attached it 10 min ago, used manual button to set water flow and it seems fine. Manual on/off worked without any problem, has a bit of a delay but it’s only seconds. Will see how it does on auto in a couple hours. Update: it came on and shutoff just as I programmed. Certainly appears to be a well made timer. No leaks at either end, just double check the washers and maybe add a second washer if a fitting doesn’t tighten up before the point of bottoming out.

I love this hose timer! Easily programmable. Still performing perfectly in the hot Texas summer sun! Kept the water turned on to it for months without any leaks or mishaps. Always started at perfect time and finished at correct time, with multiple different program times.

Best ever! So easy to setup and forget about watering.

These work great when they work. I bought two for my chicken coops water misters. One of them all the sudden wont turn off at programed time, but the other one is working fine. May have to return one. I like that they have two start times and run up to 6 hours. They are easy to program also.

Absolutely LOVE this. Quality product. Easy to program. Set it and forget it.

Performs as advertised. I’m so happy with this timer I bought another.

Does not work to program any longer, button and wheel selections simply no longer work. Very poor quality for a 50 dollar timer, worked for just over a year and a half. Will go back to Orbit timers have several of those and all work at 5+ years old.

I own three of these items, one for several years now, and they all work very good. They seem to be high quality and will last a long time. Operation is simple and quick, and the battery life seems fine. Inserting the batteries is a little unusual, but they seem well sealed and one gets used to it. I had previously owned hose end timers from another brand (not Rainpoint or Orbit) and all of them froze up after about two years, plus were more difficult to configure.)

For some reason this water timer leaks from the water inlet area around the join between the body and the black ring used for securing it to the tap - I wish we'd never bought it!

It’s really good, the only issue I’m facing is that it works a single duration. One time watering only

excelentes materiales de buena calidad y la electro válvula sella perfectamente y con fuerza.. lo recomiendo

DO NOT BUY IN UK - will not work and cannot be used without a very expensive vacuum breaker

Well made item with real Brass hose fittings. Working well.
