![]() Does it need to be a plug in timer, or is it something you are willing to wire in?

![]() I prefer a plug in type......
I need continuous on/off over a 24 hour period. I can only find the timers that have around 10 on/off periods |

![]() Sorry, can't help.
If you do eventually want something that is inline, I can recommend one that has up to 24 periods. Good luck, and please post up if you do find something! |

![]() Jim, check your hydroponic store for a minute timer, they are used for CO2, they work on a 60 minute cycle. Are you the same dude I bought my first fish from?? It was at hole in the wall behind the old Super S on 14th ave SW.... like 30 years ago!?
Cheers, Phil

![]() Man I remember that store.
![]() Anyhow, Jim, I know your pain as I've looked into this myself. There aren't a lot of cheap options. Hydroponics store is probably the only spot locally, Home Depot/Rona/etc isn't very likely to have anything that fits the bill. What are you hoping to use it for? There might be a different way we can achieve the same endgoal. There's also stuff like this (still not really cheap though): http://oceanaquatics.com/store/produ...-Dosing-Pumps/ http://www.mops.ca/cgi-bin/SoftCart....e96+1215730585

![]() Tony,
I am trying to make a fixed peristaltic pump into a variable pump by regulating the outflow through the use of a timer. I want to buy a fixed pump (because they are alot cheaper) with double the outflow that I need and then use the timer to achieve the proper outflow from my calcium reactor in order to regulate the alk and calcium level.

![]() I was looking for the same type of pump last year. I gave up because I couldn't find one for less than a few hundred bucks.
