Digital Timer Question

PoonTang · #1 11-17-2007, 02:53 AM

Is anyone out there using a coralife digital timer? What are the shortest time intervals you can set it for. I was looking at using it for a Kalk/ATO system with a small pump because it has 7 on/off cycles per day. Any suggestions?

I think the shortest intervals are 1 minute on it, but I'm not 100% sure. I think your best bet would be to use an ATO controller, like the JBJ one.

You mean the Coralife ones, or something similar?

Thanx much,

it is identicle to the coralife one, just without the coralife box and sticker. i comparied EVERY thing about them when i got them home. as i already have a coralife one.

the HD ones do not have colord tabs over the timed outlets like the coralife ones do.

that was the only difference i saw. but for 14$ i wasnt concerned with that. use a sharpie if you need the colors.

Cheers,
