Hozelock Aqua Control Water Timer
During the summer months one can never predict how long the drier periods will last and regular watering with a hand held hose can be quite a chore. Having already tried a Gardena product with frequent failures, despite the replacement of several electronic LCD modules, I almost gave up in despair when I was told by a friend that he'd never experienced problems like this with his Hozelock controller.
I wanted something simple and reliable so I was persuaded to try the Hozelock Aqua Control. Battery costs are lower because it doesn't require the more expensive 9 volt battery I had in my previous controller. I found it simple to setup and it has now been operating for more than a month without a problem. I am confident I can look forward to a reliable watering system that will keep my plants watered throughout the summer ... well done Hozelock!

Works WellMay 25, 2009 P. Dean(Cambridge UK) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I've used this timer for about a week now and it seems to work very well. I only really need it for watering the greenhouse and veg patch while I'm away and, by using a hose Y junction and a couple of sprinklers, it does the job well. If you want more complex timing options then you will have to go for the next model up but this one is fine for my needs.

Basic simple to use and robust which is all it needs to be, unless you want all the whistles and bells of the functions you will probably never use this is just fine to do the job, easy to work and change the timer on you can leave in the on position and it will turn it's self off when finished, or choose graduated times dependent on the conditions, would a rain sensor help? depends what you are doing if there is a risk of overwatering then go up to that model, if not the only grump I can throw at this is that to set the time it turns on you have to set it at that time, it then remembers and this becomes the default when it jumps into life, however if you make the mistake when turning the dial of going over the section for time setting it will set it to the current time, in use it's simple, just think about what you are doing and it will become a reliable friend.
