Rainbird and Hunter Controllers are alot better. My suggestion would to get a Rainbird Or Hunter controller. They both have many more features than any orbit controller does. Buying the Rainbird or Hunter controller may be a little more, but it's worth it. More Bang For The Buck!!!

I firmly agree with purchasing a Rain Bird, Hunter, or Irritrol controller over other brands. You should also make sure you are looking at the professional series or commercial grade controllers and NOT the consumer grade controllers found in most home improvement stores. There is a significant difference in ease of use, quality, and included features on the pro and commercial series controllers and consumer grade controllers.

The controllers found on SprinklerWarehouse.com are all professional or commercial grade controllers.<img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Orbit controllers are mistakenly used, and i have had many service calls from people who had other contractors that used this timer and it hs failed. I would use the SRC or the Hydro Saver,
