Battery-Powered Sprinkler Controller | 57865

No power, no wiring, no problem. The battery-powered sprinkler timer is built for the spots your controller can't reach: a detached garden bed, a remote zone with no sprinkler wire, or a valve you're converting from manual to automatic.

Solenoid included. It ships complete with a 13V latching solenoid and adapters for all major valve brands, so it goes straight onto your existing valve without a trip back to the store for a compatible solenoid.

Built for a flooded valve box. The housing is IP68-rated and tested to survive 30 minutes fully submerged under 1 meter of water, so a flooded valve box after a storm isn't a failure point, it's exactly the condition it's built for.

Program it in the yard. The large control dial and oversized buttons put every setting directly on the timer, so you can program it standing in the yard without pulling out a manual.

Flexible scheduling. Two programs give you up to 4 start times each, run times from 1 to 240 minutes per station, and a water budget dial that scales every zone up or down from 10% to 200% in a single adjustment, no need to reprogram each station when the seasons change. A manual rain delay skips watering for 24, 48, or 72 hours with one button.

Never lose your settings. If the batteries get low, the timer alerts you before it affects valve control, and you get a 30-second window to swap batteries without losing a single setting.

Simple installation. It runs on 3 standard AA alkaline batteries and drives up to 4 latching solenoids from one unit, controlling up to four valves in the same valve box. Installation is as simple as replacing the existing valve solenoid with the included 13V latching solenoid, loading the batteries, and setting your schedule.
