Lawn Sprinkler project
Lawn Sprinkler Project This post describes a lawn sprinkler project I recently built here in The Villages. For ease of reference, I am going to refer to this homebuilt controller as Sprinkler1 .

The Solar Sync Sensor is an evapotranspiration (ET) system that calculates plant-watering requirements and adjusts the sprinkling times set in the controller to match the environment. It seems to work very well for me, but some neighbors have complained that it does not work well. Some even stated that the landscaping people recommended that it be removed from their controller.
