Has anyone used these for their tanks? I like the idea of having a timer for my individual BRS dosing pumps, just curious if anyone has experience, I know you do!

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/DEWENWILS-Pr...=B07HH1S4PK&psc=1&refRID=14V8DYDS6VJEWDTGDPW7
I used something similar on my old tank to control my lights. Only issue I ran into was if the backup battery inside wasn't replaced regularly, the unit would loose time.

Does it only have one off and on per outlet or can you do multiple on/off cycles throughout the day?
It has 4 switched outlets and 4 constant outlets. Since it's intended for reptiles it has two yellow outlets for "daytime" lighting and two blue outlets for "nighttime" lights. If I remember correctly you can have them turn on and off at different times of the day.
 
I use a cheap analog timer for my lights. I don't know about dosing or anything else cause the minimum run time is 30 minutes.
