Mist Timers ?
« on: November 26, 2015, 08:07:36 AM »

 Any one have a idea where I can obtain a timer for a small mist system ?

Im looking for a AC timer that can be set for around 1-60 seconds and set to go off at least 2 times a day. If I had to accept DC I could make it work at 24v

The only stuff im finding is irrigation style timers usually set at 15min intervals which would be on way to long for my use.

A) build one and learn something new in the process

B) here for example: 16 groups of micro-power  digital programmable timer control switch time relay in seconds unit cycle 1 second-168 hours AC220V

minimum time 1s it says, maybe double check with vendor to be sure you get what you want.

low tech random electronic / technical stuff: China is always worth the consideration.

 Thank You,

 I appreciate the offer but im fairly sure BubbleCat hit the nail on the head for 10$

 I love the idea of re-tooling a timer, and im OK with basic electric but im lost with computers knowing myself I would have to just tweek something and wind up destroying it (like my last phone)

 Perfect

Looks like the 110 model will work perfectly.  Thank You

As much as I hate cheap china junk, Sometimes you cant beat it.

I learned my lesson about building times years ago. Long sad story (not a joke)
