RAINPOINT WiFi Water Timer, Brass Inlet & Outlet,No WiFi Hub, 2.4Ghz WiFi Compatible, TWG004WRF Hub (Lot >202108)

Over the last 3 years I have purchased 6 of the single timer versions of this product plus 2 hubs. We do not have an in-ground sprinkler system and these have worked wonderfully for our drip watering systems at various location in our yard, as well as multiple daily watering for new grass seed where patching bare spots or repairing damage. Each timer can be set up on the phone app with 3 daily schedules (when to start and how long to run), each of which can be on any day or days of the week. Since all of this is wifi instead of bluetooth, you can adjust this from anywhere you have internet access. There are also 3 rain delay choices of 24, 48 and 72 hours so that you can pause the schedules for each timer. Which leads to one of my minor but real disappointments in the app: you have to set the rain delays for each timer. So, in my case, I have to go into the settings for each of the now-eight timers one at a time and hit the rain delay. OMG, if it's raining in the front yard then it's also raining in the side and back yards, just give my the option of a universal switch that affects all the timers as a group! It would also eliminate the air-headed moments where I miss changing one of them as I go thru the whole group. My other minor complaint is that the battery holder is extremely hard to remove. Since it is obviously super-important that the compartment be waterproof, I get it, but I've actually broken a flange on a couple of them while trying to pull it out. I have now learned that it is a a bit easier to put your hands around the unit and push the holder out from the body rather than try to pull it out. And speaking of batteries, it is specified that you should not use rechargeable ones but I have done so from the start without any problems. They last throughout the entire season. I do wish the app would show battery strength tho. I've had one significant issue with the timers, repeated a couple times. and each time their tech support has promptly and thoroughly corrected it. That issue is that the coupling at the top (the part that screws onto the hose bib), can break from the weight and pull of a hose, so you have to be careful to minimize that tension as much as possible. However, each time one of them broke they promptly sent me a replacement timer. BTW, this 2-zone timer has addressed that issue by replacing the plastic coupler with metal one that I assume will hold up much better. So, I cannot recommend these timers strongly enough, especially if you go for the 2-zone model with the metal coupling.

The RAINPOINT WiFi Sprinkler Timer 2 has been a total game-changer for my lawn and garden. Setup was straightforward, and the app is very intuitive—scheduling and adjusting watering times from my phone is incredibly convenient. I love the flexibility it offers with multiple zones and smart watering features that help conserve water based on weather conditions. After about 6 months of regular use, one of the components started to malfunction. I reached out to RAINPOINT’s customer service and was genuinely impressed. They responded promptly, diagnosed the issue, and quickly sent a replacement part at no cost. Their professionalism and commitment to customer satisfaction really stood out. If you’re looking for a reliable, easy-to-use smart sprinkler system backed by exceptional support, this is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend

The controllers work amazing. Easy to set up with the hub. Once the hub is set up, pairing is simple. The app is very easy to set up schedules and work flawlessly. However... I left them connected for the winter (thinking I could) and something inside seems to have broken as the units are both leaking from the casing and top of the water connection line. I reached out to support (within warranty period) and they are replacing BOTH units with a simple piciture / video. Really no hassle at all. I did order 2 new ones on amazon as well with Brass fittings (they did not have them when I bought the original plastic units) but the plastic ones worked fine for the season. I hope that taking them in in the winter prevents cracking in the future, I imagine water was still inside them or something even though I drained the hoses / turned off water line for winter. I also purchased 6 quick connect pieces that work for my setup to make taking them out for the season / putting them back in easier but those were from another company. TLDR Great support but bring them in over winter if you get cold temps.

This is an awesome product, I wanted something I could monitor, my original system worked great, but was completely manual ( I couldn’t delay for rain) without being there to shut it off, we take care of our grandkids two days a week and are away from home, I wanted something that I could shut off if it was going to rain while we were away, so I bought this, what I was not expecting was that it would not water on its own if you set up that parameter, as in when you set up the app it you indicate the town you live in, it’s updated by the weather forecast for your location, and will automatically delay watering, also let’s me know when it turns on and off, how much water has been used! It was a snap to setup, use’s our WiFi, it has a five year warranty, the only thing I’m sorry about is that I didn’t buy this sooner, it is truly set it and forget it, wow who knew something so wonderful at such a reasonable price, the brass fittings make it quite durable, there is no screen that becomes obscured during the bright sun, as all the functionality is on your phone, you can also operate it manually both on the app and at device, this is an amazing design, it operates amazingly, thank you for a great experience.
