Device was used somehow

I've used this timer for our deck planters (7 large hanging planters + 12 large pots) for the last month. I also purchased a drip irrigation kit which includes a 1/2" feeder line and roughly 200 ft of 1/4" hose and dozens of drippers. The hardest part was setting up all the hose and then having to order another 100' of the 1/4 hose because I ran out. This wifi timer was the easiest part of the setup and frankly is the thing that makes it all work. It saves me at least 15 minutes every day watering all the planters and the peace of mind alone is worth the price. We went on vacation for 5 days and i turned on notifications in the app so it let me know when it was running - kept my plants from dying during the heat wave. Set-up: 9/10 - the app took a little getting used to but it makes sense to me now. Each side is treated separately (you can name them) and you can set up as many individual programs you want and say which days you want them to run. Ease of Use: 10/10 - I added a morning program and an evening program that run every day, 5 minutes each. I also turned on app notifications so it tells me when it starts and when it finishes. I can also go in the app and look to see how much water it used - this is peace of mind, I've slowly dialed it in and it now uses around 4.7 gallons vs 10 that I originally used when I did it manually. I check it every couple days - i figure if the tubing popped a leak anywhere I'd see that number shoot up. I don't use this feature a lot but its there - there is a manual button on the unit itself to turn it on. This was invaluable when I was first setting up my drip irrigation system. The app does track water usage even in manual mode which is a cool feature. The button requires a firm push so it'd be really hard to accidentally press it which again is nice peace of mind. Features: 8/10 - I REALLY wish it would self adjust based on weather forecast. There is a moisture sensor you can buy separately and I believe that will get me the feature I want so I'm going to order it and try it out. My work around has been to add a 3rd program mid-day that is turned off. When its over 95 for the day, I just turn click the program to enable it and voila, my plants get the additional water they need. If its raining, there are 3 icons at the bottom of the app under Plan where you can select rain delay for 24, 48, or 72 hours. I've used it and it works well. Overall: 9/10 - I loved this enough to buy the single version for my planters in the front. I've already mapped out a DIY irrigation system for my back lawn and plan to expand my system in the fall. Our plants are bigger than they've ever been and we've received a lot of compliments from our neighbors and friends.

Este es el segundo equipo de Rainpoint que compro, lo utilizo para hacer un sistema de riego por goteo en forma automática, porque no tengo oportunidad de regar mis jardines, de hecho en la misma aplicación instalé dos sistemas en dos domicilios diferentes y esta funcionando bien. Le doy tres recomendaciones: 1) Si no se quiere conectar el hub a su wifi de internet, chequen con otro router, puesto que a mi se me dificultó con un router pero cuando use otro no tuve ningún problema. 2) Si les es posible consigan un convertidor de 6 volts 2 Amperes de corriente alterna a corriente directa, para sustituir las 4 pilas AA de 1.5 cada una. Pregunten a algún experto cómo se puede conectar. 3) Conecten el temporizador a la conexión 110v del hub, esto es para que cuando se desenlace el temporizador del hub, ustedes puedan volver a enlazarlo por vía remota, utilizando la app, apagando unos minutos la conexión 110v del hub y luego volviendo a conectar por medio de la aplicación, para que vuelva a enlazarse el temporizador al hub.

I got my 1 zone wifi Rainpoint water timer the same day I ordered it from Amazon. It is the end of our watering season hear in Minneapolis, we've had a good freezer already, but we had a beautiful weekend in the 70s so I used the wifi valve timer to water our many trees one last time. It was easy to setup and use. We are in the middle of a severe dry period and one last watering seemed like a good idea. We have a Google Mesh wifi system with 3 mesh transmitters. I downloaded the Rain point App with no problem on my android phone and set up an account. It took a couple of tries to get the wifi to recognize the Rainpoint wifi hub but it did. I was a little worried because Google Mesh system is dual band 2 and 5 MHz, but the hub and then the valve and socket all showed up. I played with the programming options but will go into them in depth a bit more next spring and report back. I have set up 4 zones in the front of our house and 3 in the back. I have used electronic programmable timers but this is my first wifi timer. I have 5 drip and soaker irrigation zones and two lawn Sprinkler zones on the timers. I currently have two new and one-1 year old Rainpoint dual zone timers and an older single zone timer that I used this year. In the past I've had Orbit timers and found that they last from 2 - 5 years . This new wifi timer is something I had hoped would be available to replace the self programmed timers. It is much easier to adjust the timer parameters on a phone then on a timer on a hose spigot. There are also multiple new parameters (rain, soil moisture, etc) that can be factored into the timing program. I am glad the system is expandable and hope to eventually have all of the zones on the system. I will update my review next spring when our garden season resumes. So far, I've been very pleased with all of the timers I've gotten from Rainpoint. They work well, are reasonably priced and the warranty and email support are great. My gardening is very dependent on watering timers so I will be updating this review with feedback on the timers. Update.12/19/2022: I added a second timer to my rainpoint system. The wifi connection was straightforward and works as expected with no problems. I'm looking forward to next Spring to try out all the controls. I am very pleased with how easy adding the second timer was.
