Florabest water timer
My cheapo Florabest (Lidl?) water timer just went wild,
and seemed to re-start watering as soon as it had finished. Has anyone had problems with this timer? I also found it rather hard to configure; even before it stopped working properly it was prone to revert to the default watering frequency, which is every 8 hours. (I have a more expensive Hozelock timer which has been working fine for years. I guess in something like this it is cheaper to pay a bit more ...) -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland |

I did indeed check the batteries, with a battery tester. I'll try replacing the batteries (2 x AA). But I would say that water timers should be programmed to turn off if the batteries fail. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland |
