Timer Question

[Nevin]

Coralife digital works well for me, but not suitable for this application.

Assuming that a SCWD won't do it for you, what about this?

By the way, I assume you've solved this problem, but I notice they're selling egg tumblers at canadianaquatics.com.

I have one of the Corallife dual timers (not digital) and they can be programmed for every 15 minutes I think. I don't like mine very much as it can't seem to keep time. I have to move it ahead everyday. But other than that it works fine.

Guess my program is really easy... lights on at 10, lights off at 9... every day.

Thanks for all the input everyone. So far, none of the posted ones will turn on/off often enough except the Coralife ones, and I won't buy Coralife. Those timers are notoriously faulty...ask any LFS who sells them regularly how many they get back in a month!!

I couldn't find a suitable timer in the Woods online catalog, so I emailed them.

Myka, Canadian tire has digital indoor timers with up to 20 programable settings. I think they are made by noma. If you need a picture I can send on later tonight are work. I have a bunch of them.

Hey Drock, ya I was just gonna go check out the hardware stores, but I figured I'd ask on here in case there is something out there that would work even better.

The problem isn't finding a timer that will change a bunch of times a day, the problem is finding a timer that has TWO inlets that will switch on/off opposite of eachother. That's the trouble. Most of them are just single inlet. I may be able to make it work with two of those type of timers, but I'm not in any hurry, so I have time to see if what I want actually exists!

Here is a link Mseepman sent me.

I believe Mark knows where you can buy them locally. Thought it might meet your needs.

At the petstore in Lacombe they have a wave timer plug in thing that can be set from 20seconds up to..I forget. It's like $130 or something though..
