3/4" Hose End Battery Operated Timer (5.2 GPM) Review

3/4 Hose End Battery Operated Timer (5.2 GPM)

I purchased three of these timers in 2008. They were easy to program and worked well during the first season in my drip system. In the second season they started failing one by one and are now useless. The problem is incomplete opening. I've taken them apart and cleaned them, but it doesn't help. The tech I spoke to at the company was friendly and said that they would replace all of the timers.

Melnor 3060 6-Cycle Electronic AquaTimer Digital Dual Hose Timer Review

I bought this timer over others, the day before yesterday because of its ability to water on odd days. However, I have it attached below my south facing house wall faucet which is in direct sunlight for the majority of the day. I discovered the first day that the display became jumbled and the controls became inoperative when the unit had been in the sun for a modest period of time. Today, the unit was completely inoperative and required that I cool it down with hose water before it "came back on line." Worse, it had lost its time even though it didn't loose either program I'd stored. So, even if it did come to function again over night, it wouldn't know what time it really was! The manual gives no indication that the unit will not operate reliably at high temperatures although it does say it'll fracture if frozen. The manual lists no placement restrictions or options to avoid unit malfunction at higher temperatures.
