Just went and picked up an Orbit brand at Lowe's. Only problem I see is it also has a freeze guard that activates at 37'. That won't work for feeding early AM in winter. I think Home Depot here carries Rainbird brand. Fouzman, you recall how you wire it in? The manual is below, not helpful (to me anyway) and it references 24V usage when the feeder is 6v? Rainbird Manual I used butt splices and wired it in between the timer and the motor I think, Charlie. Either that or between the battery and timer. It's hell to get old.
