Rain Bird ESP-TM2 8 Station WiFi Ready Indoor/Outdoor Controller | TM2-8

The Rain Bird controller has saved me so much running back and forth to the controller to test and time sprinklers! Our controller is in our daylight basement with concrete on 3 sides and walls and doors on the other side. It was a long trek, often muddy, from the controller to a zone to see if sprinklers are working, then back into the house to change zones and check the next zone. Wifi solved everything! The wifi to the controller is as good as if not better than within the house. Our house is 100 feet long and the controller is at one end of it (and like I said, behind concrete), and our lot is 200 feet long, yet I can control the zones from the far end of the property. Takes a few seconds to establish the connection, then from zone to zone it's virtually instant. No more traipsing back and forth from controller to zone, having to take off my shoes (mud, debris) and put them back on. Saves a ton of time. Works perfectly. And you can name your zones if you can't remember which zone is which by the numbers. Go to Edit Controller, then tap on the zones below, and you get a keyboard. And I can adjust everything from my recliner or from the coffee shop or wherever I am, even traveling. I could not be happier with this thing, and I appreciate Rain Bird's attention to quality. I just hope it keeps going, but our previous Rain Bird was 15 years old and performing perfectly -- it just didn't have wifi.

It was easy/peazy. The part came to our home, and I installed it the next day. The instructions were easy to read and follow. I will order from Amazon the next time I need anything for our sprinkler system.

Easy to replace take a photo of the colored wires so you don’t mix them up

This controller is very similar to the beloved old controllers. If you only need a controller, this is your best bet. However, I wanted to upgrade to the wireless/App connectivity, so that I could control it when I was not at home. The wireless module is worthless. I was unable to complete a single task through the App. Once the connection was lost, I had to unplug this controller to reset the connection. I will be replacing the controller with another brand. So sad. I had my old Rainbird controller for 29 years.

Perfect replacement for the Hunter system that was originally installed back in 2010. Easy to install, program, and use.

The Controller is easy to install and easy to use. We have had ours now for 15 months and it has worked perfectly. It is a relatively compact, gray box that is unintrusive in appearance. We recommend this device for all interested purchasers.

Product came with no damage hook up was straight forward we had a 30 year old rain bird controller just go out hopefully this new rainbird will last is long recommend this to all who need this model

Cost effective and works great with our sprinkler system. Actually, our repair person told me to buy this particular model because it is easy to program & could handle all our zones. Happy customer !
