Preparing tap timers for winter

Be sure you check with your local water authorities for any sprinkler bans
We recommend either reducing the watering time or turning it off completely
In really cold climates, we suggest that you remove the battery and make sure there is no water left inside the tap timer
If you live in an area that gets frost, we recommend taking off the tap timer completely and storing it away for the meantime

Reviews

When the batteries die, the whole device stops FOREVER

I have had repeated trouble getting the devise started every time I've had to change the batteries. This time it will not restart, so I give up. That's the last Holman product I will buy.

Holman BX2

Have had in use from 24/10/2025 with no problems, stopped working 17/04/2025 pulled out batteries and unit was full of water. Now not working so only 6 months use.

This was a great product but the fact that water has entered the electronics has ruined it, maybe the business management tried to cut costs 😞😞😞

Unit not sealed appropriately

I gave this item one star because it actually works well however having two units fail because Of water entering the electronics. These units have very poor connection to the tap causing leaks which enter into the unit. Until this problem is corrected I would recommend not buying this type of unit.

As it's controlled by an app on the phone, it's very easy to use and understand, and it's intuitive. A problem with previous timers is that if your tap was low, you had to get down on your knees to see the display. They often also combined numerous functions into one button, which was confusing. None of these issues are applicable to the app, which has separated the start, duration, days etc into their own place on the app.

Great simple to use tap timer

This was a very simple timer to setup and using the app provided a straightforward way to program the cycles I wanted. Connection to the device is fast. Time will tell as to how long the battery will last but so far it has been working great.

Hi Dave, thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We hope you enjoy many more watering days ahead with your new tap timer 😊
Thanks, The Holman Team

water in wrong place

Why did Holman design the bx2 with a path for water to ingress through the valve plug connection in the back of the unit ?
Silicone sealant would have prevented me having a water filled electronics compartment.

0 stars if possible

Just died - waste of money

Disconnects Bluetooth

It sometimes disconnects from Bluetooth and will stay on which is really bad for the unreliability factor. Have had to remove battery and reinstate to reset and get going again. Still not sure if I can trust it

Hi Daniel, we're sorry to hear your BX2 is having connection issues, please contact our Customer Service Team at support@holmanindustries.com.au for additional support. Thank you, your Holman Team.

All good at the moment

Set up and working well at the moment. Concept good and having a two year warranty also a good point.
