yeah thanks, i edited the post with nevermind cause I found a different thread.  I looked at walmart and homedepot.com and they aren't popping up any of the timers mentioned in the threads.. I was wondering if theres a specific NAME for those sorts of timers, cause "cycle timers" seem to be very very expensive, and i know timers for hydroponics lights aren't 100-300$

what are you trying to put on the timer?
i use one on my utrasonic w/ 15 minute cycles, it was like $15 at ace hardware.
my local hydro store has a 3 second cycle digital for $20, so dont write them off completely. i wish i had checked
with them before i bought mine.
i think theyre starting to figure out what im up to though, i only go in there for giant bags of verm.
but im paranoid.

Don't pay more than about $5 for a basic timer.

Well, the one my friend gave me for free has 8 on/offs per day, so i set it up for 15 min every 3 hrs, and i'm seeing how that works. 

Yah, I get paranoid about the hardware store too, I must have gone to like 20 different places looking for Lye, and most the places told me "oh they stopped making that" and I was shocked that they'd say something like that, and then the other places only had it granular, for like a 30 mile radius.  I finally found a place a few towns over that sells small bags.  Home Depot/Walmart also told me they quit making vermiculite.  I thought vermiculite was harvested, not made.  but I found a local store that used to sell the fine grade that now only sells course =/  Shits getting tricky.   

Hell, even my last batch of poo didn't work out.  It all looks/smells/seems dry and fine just like last years, but when you pasteurize it, it starts smelling like rotten eggs and god awful.  Never happened before that way :frown:


but yeah, the timers, I really gotta find one.  I dont think I have a local ace hardware, is there a specific TYPE of timer these timers people use for this are called?  SOMETHING timers?

can you folks maybe link me to these timers you're all finding/seeing at walmart and places I've already looked/checked/called/ web browsed? please?  maybe its just not in my region?
