This thread is to get information not to bash mistking. I love my mistking and is hands down the best addition I've made to my tanks. I would recommend it to any frogger out there. However, I've been having some issues with what I hope is just the timer and wanted some info/ advice if anyone has had the same problem.
Basically the issues started a few weeks ago when the timer would not go off at the set time. When I would hit the button to turn it to the on setting it would not run. Then thinking I'd deal with it later I put it back on auto only to come back later to find it constantly running. I unplugged the timer and plugged the system in directly and it ran just fine. I reset the timer with the little reset button reprogrammed and tried again. Came home today to flooded tanks, and leaky front glass on one from to much water.
I attempted to program the timer for 20 second mists several times a day. so I would hit the button till everyday of the week was displayed. then do something like on 09:00 to Off 09:00 sec 20
Did i not program correctly or is the timer not functioning right? Anyone else had this issue? Please note do not respond to this thread with negative comments about mistking or their components. If you have comments on that nature please p.m. them to me. Responses to this thread should be trouble shooting advice. Also if anyone has any timer recommendations please p.m. as well. Also note that I have attempted to contact mistking directly but have not yet received a response.
