Retired electrical engineer, loving the idea of taking my 80’s technology (probably 60s/70s) irrigation system and making it fit to live in the 2020’s and beyond.

Current project is making the Rachio 3 drive a relay to drive the Pump Start Relay to power my pump. Then remove the old indexing valve/manifold thing, add a valve box, a real manifold with electric valves, a spare zone for future drip system, and a backflow preventer. Fun fun.
