Not good product
The water was coming very slow from outlet even though my pipe pressure was good. Was not useful. Maybe it can be used with pressure pump. Functinality works good. Giving 3 star since seller genuinely took it back .

Good one. Using for two years
This one was good. The battery back up is also good. Configuration is a bit difficult. It took some time to understand the configuration. First time you can do it with the brochure/leaflets/pamphlet. But second time when you will have to change the batteries, you will end up experimenting if you are not keeping the pamphlet with you.
However, once you set up the program, then it will stay there till you change the batteries.

Some important parts to connect with tap were missing
It is easy to setup but to connect with our tap there were missing parts that we had to find at local hardware shops to make it functional. Post that it is useful and we are happy to use it and rely on it while we are out and it is taking care of our plants.

Got cheated
Had bought this from Amazon and had installed it. Went for holidays after installing and when I came back noticed that this timer was not working and all my new plants, worth thousands of rupees, died. Contacted Pinolex and as per instructions sent the defective item through air courier and thereafter, Pinolex was not answering my calls. After one month they dispatched the item which was more in bad condition than before. You can see the photos above. I had given five stars earlier since fornfew days it worked fine. I am a senior citizen and have experience such an harrassment which I got from Pinolex. I suggest not to ever buy their product and save your money. I have wasted all my money and also courier charges of Rs.459.

Water only trickles at the output and disappointing customer care
The media could not be loaded. Water output is very slow as can be seen in the video. I suspected that it could be defective, but still wanted to confirm with the supplier in case that is a normal operation. But customer care person neither picked the call not returned the call. After trying many times he picked the call and asked me to send the video. I took pains to connect it back, make a video and send. He saw the video but didn’t say anything. Then, after a while I had to call back to get a reply that he is busy and will call back in a short time. Yet again he didn’t call. Then I called him again the following day and told him I have already returned the product but still wanted to know if that was detective to decide whether to go for replacement. But, the reply was more in the tone that he doesn’t care if I have returned the product and this will matter him the least. To summarise, product is anyways bad, but more disappointed with customer support. So I will suggest don’t waste your time buying this and better buy from an other maker!

It has good features, especially the ability to set watering at different times /intervals.
The only drawback is that the water flow through this device is very slow, this is reducing the water pressure. It is ok for few dippers but if you are planning to install more than 50 drippers then water pressure is not sufficient. Also it is not good for mini sprinklers which need more pressure. By the way, my water tank (1000 liters) is at the height of 15 feet from ground, so the original water pressure is very high and all my drippers + sprinklers work without any problem if i bypass this timer. But with the timer installed, some drippers in between dont get any water and also the sprinklers just behave like drippers. I am using Jain Irrigation pipes/drippers/sprinklers.
I also have different brand water timer that i purchased in Spain – corte engles (was cheaper – 17 Euro – 1250 Rupees compared to this 2000 Rupees), which is made in Germany, and the build quality is solid and has a ball type valve which does not restrict the water flow/pressure at all.
So, in order to overcome the water pressure problem, i had to use this German timer instead.
Unfortunately i purchased only 1 from Spain, thats why i needed to purchase this one. Next time, when i will go to Spain again, i will buy some more from there, which is cheaper and of good quality.

Works good! but a few suggestions …
Works good! In a few minutes, I could get the whole thing setup and working in manual mode. If a few suggestions like the following are adopted it could be great!
1. Manual could be lot better, especially for everyday programming, please add the following at Step-13
(a) Press triangle -> see "2nd" blinking
(b) Press triangle again -> see "3rd" blinking
(c) Press triangle again -> see "Su" blinking
(d) Press SET -> see "Su" and "Mo" blinking
(e) Press SET -> see "Su", "Mo" and "Tu" blinking
— (continue step (e) ..
(x) Press SET -> see "Su", "Mo", …, "Fr" and "Sa" blinking
(y) Press SET
2. The connection to the inlet water pipe could be better. When these devices are used for everyday purpose, it would be better when they are placed away from the tap in a covered area and in horizontal position. For this I drew a flexible pipe from the outlet at the wall to a covered area where the device was kept (covered from sun, rain, insects etc.). But the flexible pipe could be interfaced with the inlet of this device as both had female ends. So I had to get a male-to-male piece from hardware to connect them. But hardware stores do not have them in plastic . So there is a metal piece in between my flexible pipe and this device. To avoid metal piece potentially damaging the thread of this device, I bought a plastic extender connecting to that metal piece and the plastic extender goes into this device. Works, but not ideal. Instead if PepperAgro itself had included a plastic male-to-male to go with this device, people can keep this device anywhere and use normal, flexible pipes to plan/change/replan their gardening.
Hope that is useful.

Works very well indeed!
Works very well!
Even before I got delivery, I got a call from the seller asking me if I had questions of the setup! That was fantastic service.
He informed me that the timer should always be setup in a vertical manner and not horizontal.
Also to put a good filter, else timer can have problems from random stuff entering it. I got a 130 micron 120 mesh filter (see photos).
I have a garden setup of drip irrigation of about 100 metres. 3/4" pipe setup till 16 mm lines of drip system, followed by drippers and mini sprinklers and feeder tubes of 4 mm.
The timer works very well. Almost a set-and-forget.
When programming it, be patient, as the settings move to the next option quite slowly.
But too many options to go through to set it for every day at a particular time.
After setting run time, you have to keep pressing till you go from every 2nd day -> 3rd day -> Su -> add Mon -> add Tu -> add Wed -> add Thu -> add Fri -> add Sat.
Too many steps for setting up every day watering.
Lately though, after about 2 months use, I have had a strange problem with it.
I suspect either an internal tiny droplet leakage or something due to humidity, as the timer got flooded with small amounts of water collected over time and shorted the batteries and caused a battery leak.
I will keep an eye on this. If this continues, I may have to pull out the battery tray and keep it outside separately and sufficiently covered so that timer doesn’t stop by water entering batteries.
This was not meant to scare you away from buying the product!
Go for it. It will serve you well and give you peace of mind.

Saved our lawn during lockdown
It would not be wrong to say this is one of the best and smart purchases ever. The timer setup and installation might be a little confusing at first due to various parts and extensions, but I watched a YouTube review and it was all clear. Contrary to other reviews who say that battery does within 15 days, mine has been working for the last 3 months without any issues. It has a built-in filter that might get clogged over time but is a simple open and clean process.
During the lockdown, we were totally unable to visit our 2nd home, and this device relieved us. We could see from the CCTV, device worked as intended and probably it irrigated more evenly than our usual gardner. The result was that with no human intervention, the lawn spurred all green and lush.
Now lockdown is over, but we have kept this as it is. Saves our time and money!

4 years and still running
Had bought 2 of these quiet a few years ago. Misplaced one but the other one has been working like a charm for the past 4 years. Need to replace the batteries once a year usually every Jan by schedule since I replace all my remote control batteries too at the same time. Have it connected to my outlet from my overhead tank. It’s connected to a 4 way splitter and covers all the four sides of my house. Has about 100 meters of 16mm pipe overall connected to it and I do not have a pressure pump on the main line either. It’s been delivering enough water through 92 drip points and is still increasing. I don’t switch it off during the monsoons I just stop the water supply to the timer and let it continue it’s opening and closing of the solenoid throughout the monsoon season.
I think as long as you don’t get a defective piece things should be fine. Another thing for the solenoids jamming or not functioning properly I’d suggest checking the salt content of the water being used. If you have a problem of salt deposits on your taps in the house , this will certainly make the functioning difficult after sometime for these timers. Also use a mesh filter inline to the inlet of this timer so as to avoid sand and debris from jamming the mechanism although it comes with a net filter.
