In order to have six valves open at the same time, the irrigation controller would need a larger power supply. For irrigation purposes, usually you don't want more than one circuit running at the same time, otherwise the water pressure might go down. In other words, two valves open simultaneously is probably an exception with these sort of devices. |
Yeah I went and re-read everything. What I'm trying to do is control low lights, high lights, CO2. So I need three relays at once. For now I just ganged two relays together and have just "lights" and reduced their total on time, and CO2.
I don't dose ferts or do automated water changes.
I looked around for controllers that do more simultaneous relays (i.e. 4), but they are like $250
So far it works as advertised so I'll use it until I find or make something that allows me to use three relays simultaneously.
thanks,
