Melnor Sunrise Morning Water Timer

Set it and forget it. Very basic operation,just set the time duration on the dial and it's activated by first morning sunlight. I use the 5 minute duration in non-summer seasoning the 15 minute in Summer,which here in Tucson can be quite challenging. A 10 minute duration would have been a great option,however, everything functions as expected. My plants are happy!

I decided to get this water timer because I am disabled and don't get out often. Now that it's getting pretty hot I don't want my new plants I recently planted to burn and dry out. Florida heat is no joke and if you don't water everyday you forget about flowers blooming. What appealed to me the most about this particular water timer is that there is no programming. You simply screw the top of the timer on to your outside water spigot then screw the water hose to the bottom of the timer. Then attach the sprinkler of your choice and your done with setting up the system. Then you just turn the knob to the amount of time you want to do the watering and that's it. I have mine set to 15 minutes but it can be set to run from 5 to 120 minutes. If you need to test that the sprinkler is in the right position so that you don't spray your neighbors when when their leaving for work in the morning, simply turn the knob to the on position and the sprinkler with run until you either turn the knob to the off setting or back to the desired watering time. It automatically waters the the desired area at sunrise everyday. Nothing can be easier. I fell in love with it after one day and I'm sure my plants love it too. Never having a sprinkler system always affected how many plants I would put in my yard because I can't stand outside watering everyday. With these new hose only water timers anyone can have an automated watering system. I live in a townhouse right now and it works perfect for my little courtyard area. BTW: The battery case is incredibly hard to get off. I ended up getting needle nose pliers and putting straight out to get it out. Pull straight out or you may tear something up. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Very easy to set up and works as it should

The sunrise timer makes watering our lawn easier! It's like having automatic sprinklers without the cost of installing automatic sprinklers.

Excellent timer due to the fact, we do not have to be at home to start the water at automatically waters the area that we want very simple to install and set up

Lots of things to like about this product, first being it works exactly as described. It requires two AA batteries and then it screws easily onto your outdoor faucet, which is connected to your hose. There aren't a lot buttons to push or timing things to program, which is a plus. All you have to do is set the dial to the amount of time you want the water on for, then at sunrise it turns itself on & off for the time you prescribed. There is an option to override the times manually, by selecting 'on' and 'off. When the batteries need replacing, there is a flashing light indicating they're low. The unit is small and easy to handle, so great for those who have physical limitations.

My backyard has grass in an area and being in Arizona it gets hot and dry! It's now in it's usual period of low 100's degrees. My grass needs to be watered every day unlike my flowers and bushes that need timers set for different days. Having a solar timer is a tremendous help. This timer is easy to set up. It comes on when that bright sun shines in the morning, and can be set to water anywhere from 5 to 120 minutes. Very simple to set amount of time. No complicated instructions or steps to go though. Easy to read. Very pleased.
