Just want to tell jthornton and mouthpear thank you so much.
For anyone new going at this project please skip the old timer and relay model that's on the first page. The relay is unreliable. I used both sockets and both relays that plug in, that came with my order from amazon. They eventually stop working. I fiddled and still they would fail.
Look at page 12. I'm using just two timer/relay units wired straight from the battery to the relays how the second schematic shows. I went overboard on solar and got a 25w panel and 20ah battery off amazon. The battery is so big i may go days before the panel needs to charge the battery.
If anybody ever sees this thread and wants a video or list of amazon orders I'll check on this thread for a couple weeks.
PS. if anybody in socal wants to get rid of some reds, I want. My current set of birds are doing ok but I have just medium egg layers. I want some producers now that my coop is secure again. Reds were the best I have ever had. Thanks
