Love the videos..learned alot. Held off on mowing this past week aside from my front yard which is irrigated amd had 4 bags of milorganite in the past month
Hi Pete. I saw you use your knife to slice the black outer jacket on the multi conductor wire and thought I'd give some advice for next time. There should be a white cord inside with the wires that you pull back to slice through that black outer jacket. Makes it a lot easier than trying to slice it or cut it and avoid cutting wires inside. I'm not sure if all manufacturers put that cord in though. It should be a thin white string.
I had to switch wi-if (at&t phone and DSL) company's so I could run all my gadgets, security cameras most importantly. Thanks COMCAST, so far sooo good! Thanks for this awesomeness video, lucky you've had rain or you'd be using a pickaxe to dig that red clay.
Merry Christmas Pete. I'm going to Raleigh Wednesday to take my Public Health (Mosquito) exam at 1:00pm. I'd like to meet you. I'll call your office on my way back to see if you're available.
I see you made this video six years ago. I sure hope some of your friends or even people here on RUclips let you know that your 120 electrical is in violation. Being a former Detroit firefighter for seven years then an electrician for next 40 years just trying to be a blessing to you. Putting the unit on the outside in all the elements is not a wise decision either. Sometimes it’s best for professionals to coach you on the installation. I know you worked hard on it and you did a lot of unnecessary steps to run the wire and mount the box.
I changed my SST1200OUT from "odd days" to "cyclic" w/ 1 day intervals because of the heat and lack of rain. But my zone 1 will run for 2x the set duration (I set for 30 mins but it runs 1hr) all other zones will run after that hr and for the set time not 2x. Any idea what I have wrong?
Why does my system only run on a test when I run it on a normal schedule ?? I unplugged, reset and took the battery out for a week but it still runs a test every time. driving me crazy.
You probably would have made your installation job a bit easier by removing the front cover and the control panel... It's simply attached with a ribbon it would have made your install on the house easier to balance and level without that big door and panel throwing you off balance.
Just so you know, I have "stolen" some of your landscaping ideas and have done a few of my flower beds just like yours haha Maybe a future video could be a full walk through of your entire gorgeous property!
Thanks for your video. Nice job. I’ll be sure to open it again when I’m installing.
Rainbird espme are 1 of the best controller out I am a installer i am going to do the WiFi 4 the first time 4 a coustmer thank you 4 the revew
I've got that same knife. Love it. It'll open a deer up just as easy as you cut that wire.

I’m installing mine next weekend with WiFi. I’ll have my sweet tea. We love it in Texas as well.

Sounds like Ricky Bobby’s kids are playing on a trampoline in the background. 😂😂
I just installed the same one for my house and I really enjoy the WiFi option. Totally Awesome!

On the day my Tigers finally win in the Dean Dome, I'll send you a Clemson hat to wear in your next video.😂
Is it best practice to mount this on the outside of the house thats open to the elements?
Whats that arrow it's pointed to lock on top of all those wires connected?

What kind of wire are you using?
Adding this to my Christmas list
You don't need a level to mount it, screw in desired area then level to add additional screws. 10 minutes it's all I need

Great video but how did you connect it to the water tap?

When you turn on a zone from the phone, does it change the schedule that you set up in the controller?
Jason waters that's A great question and I have no idea because I have not tried that out yet but when I do I will let you know
It triggered my ocd that the timer box isn’t lined up with the window frame lol
