$18 timer for dosing pump

Anybody try one of these with a BRS dosing pump? Seems like a good one, times down to the second:

Amazon product ASIN B07QJ3K43N

Thats nice. I use the tp link power strip for my brs dosers
The tp link outlet timers only to the minute. But the kasa app rules for programming. Button presses suck.

Do share about this kasa app and it goes to what wifi plugs?

Tp link.
Current tank has just the dosers set up, new tank is going to have full control for remote on/off capibility and scenes for feeding and what not so im not having to turn multiple things on or off manually.
I do wish you could control the timers down to the second though.
With fixed dosers is tricky to get that perfect medium with a full minute.

Another option, i like it!

Debating getting a controller system (either GHL or Hydros) for this nano and a 200 gallon being installed shortly. I am little disturbed at the price point of controllers as well as the purposeful preventing of placing nice with other brands though. That's why Apex is definitely not an option for me.

If I don't get a controller, it's either the manual timer above or your option for sure.

The nano is easy to dose manually for now. The two hundred gallon should have water in it in March. Live rock has be on a heater and powerhead and dosing ammonia since last September. Once corals are growing at good clip in the 200 gallon, or if i find a good deal on a used controller, i'll make a decision.

Kind of like the timer option most right now. Less to go wrong, but i do like Wifi and apps. I asked a question on amazon about whether if the timer fails is it always on or always off, and if the latter that might be the clincher for coral safety sake even if i get a controller.

Yea i dont need much more than a good few webcams and on off/timer control for everything :)

Good job on cooking the rock too. Been doing the same but since june of last year. Cant speak for the micro fauna ive been adding but the bacteria should be good and robust :)
