    I want to use a timer connected to a water butt for irrigating my plot when I'm away.

    I already have a battery powered timer (make Galcon) which works fine connected to the mains, but it needs a minimum of 1 bar to work. As far as I can tell by googling they all seem to need mains pressure.

    Has anyone used a low pressure water timer/controller that might work in this situation?
