Damn those look crazy sweet.

So if I understand the pics correctly you're switching not only the outputs but also the drains?

Certainly, the drains are switched to pull in the same direction as the returns push, this will give you the maximum amount of water movement, the time delays would be controlled by the same timer I showed earlier, Beananimal wants to modify a 555 timer for me to do different time delays at different locations, but he won't do it until I build his jet pack

That would make a great setup. I had thought of a similar idea myself but using MOV's and a PLC but the cost was too prohibitive and not very "KISS principle". Using a single OM device for the same thing is awesome. Very cool!
