Texas Hunter makes a very good timer. Been using them for years with no problems. Us too. I have found however their timers will run on either 6 or 12 volt systems. They are not nearly as realiable on 6 volt systems as they are on 12's.

Yes, and it is THE timer; none better; They come standard with the best feeders in the world, Diamond Feeders. Oh, we sell those by the way!

Went with the timer this year. Super easy to program - only issue I had is one feeder battery was so low, it assumed it was a 6 volt so the battery gauge did not calibrate correctly (a charge and a reset fixed that). It has dual battery gauges (timer and spinner battery, timer uses spinner battery until with a AA as a programing backup). Very easy to program. No long term experience though.

Thought I would bring this back to the top since I'm needing to replace a couple of timers. I have been replacing the others with All Season with the "Timer". They have been working great.
But does anybody have any experience with Spintech Timers??? Found these with the eliminator spin plate already mounted for about $50 less.

you can get the eliminator plate separately, and I have seen the time that in my attempt to save a few bucks... well you know. I can tell you that The Timer and HCR are both very good timers. So you are replacing the entire FCU and finding one with a spin-tech unit one it for 50.00 cheaper than another. I have heard of the spin tech bring sold separately for 39.00, if it's like the Remington 30.00 units beware.
