My brother and I both purchased panda timers on ebay and they really sucked. (We opened the timers after they failed) they where very poorly modified.One lasted exactly 5 months and another after 7 1/2 months . The timers failed during flowering period, I lost my whole crop because of it. The seller never replied to numerous emails and ended up being refunded by paypal. 2 years ago we purchased a Tiger timer, another so called ''aeroponic timers'' made by canaponics laboratories a canadian company. We ordered 2 from eBay and later 1 from Bonanza made from the same company. They were a few bucks more than any other but since we had no other 1 minute timers to choose from, we ordered 3 (contacted seller and asked them a discount if I would buy 3 and got a 15$ rebate) I sent about 9 emails to the seller to see what kind of service they offer and they replied in a few minutes each time (in the middle of the night) I was more than a little ''frosted'' I told them that if I purchase their timers and they send me crap timers like those panda timers, I would complain to paypal, ebay and bonanza. Well 2 years 4 months later, the Tiger timers are still working perfectly. True 60 seconds timers with 3 grounded outlets. Before I wrote this review, I checked if they still exist and yes they are still on ebay and bonanza. I think they are pretty much everywhere now except amazon. They have a web site now canaponics.ca but they don't accept paypal on their main site (not cool
) but at least they sell on abay and bonanza witch accepts paypal. I don't know if you can imagine what I felt like when I lost my crop during the flowering stage. Man I cried and I was fuc..g mad
I smashed most of my setup that day and yes I admit I cried. All I was thinking was those fuc..g crap panda timers and what I went through. Anyway it's all water under the bridge. I'm in smoke heaven now.....
