I just like the super compact design of the controller.

Hard to say how it's controlled based on that description. I don't see any instructions posted on the site, but I might have missed them. It might be one simple duty cycle switch. Basically, get it because you like the aesthetics and fitment, not for its features.

I think that looks to be a good idea. Reasonable price, easy to mount, and it uses a proven solenoid.

I may be recommending that one for one of the local guys here.

I also discovered something, there is a special going on on their site. 50 bucks off the controller. Definetely going to try it out now since the price cant be beat.

Looks like a simple solenoid valve. I can't find a manual anywhere to get a idea of what kind. I think I'll buy it and report back on it.
