First on the list for 2018?

I would be up for the portable programming vs mailing the timers in???

The reprogrammed firmware does not monitor pump current, so it will work with any pump motor. The timer box breaker switches would be your over current protection.

Thank you

Reprogrammed timers are still working great. Thanks for the service.

Any idea of how the brain box would respond to replacing the jabsco pumps with Johnson's or private labeled ones from wakemakers? Do you know if it's finicky on current draw sensing?

I used the programmer ^^^ and it worked great! Super easy to use and I like the added feature of being able to reprogram the timers externally using the pump toggle switches. Highly recommend.

The portable ballast timer programmer has made several round trips around the US and everyone has had great success with it. Its more convenient and cheaper because you don't need to remove/disconnect the timer module and ship it to me.

Its available now if anyone needs it. Just PM me and let me know.

So, the portable programmer is about ready to go. I'd like to get a list going of people that would like to use it. Please PM me and I'll start compiling the list then work through it FCFS.

Ok thanks for looking

Would something like this work?does it somehow override the factory ballast timer?

That appears to be an inline timed relay that you would connect between the factory timer module and the pump. So, the factory timer module would still be controlling the time the pumps are running.

Yeah, I cannot fix that type of timer. Just the modules that have the 3 individual timers.

So, I bought a new portable programmer that does not need to be connected to a PC to reprogram the timers. I have tested it and it seems to work well.

I wrote up a procedure for reprogramming your own timers and it makes sense to me, but I have also reprogrammed hundreds of timers, so if a couple people would be willing to review it for me and offer any feedback, I'd appreciate it. Let me know and I'll email it to you.

Awesome! I'd be up for it also. I PM'd you.

Second that ^^^

I am on the east coast with a 09 and would be willing to provide feedback as well!
