Product is well built, buttons function perfectly. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the Hunter Node (like being backlit would be nice, for example).....but so far it works well. First impressions are that it will be more reliable than the Signature SoloRain. Comes with a DC latching solenoid for Irritrol control valves, but will work with any brand (but must be DC latching) if you cut and splice the wires. Also has a mounting hook for inside of valve box. Nifty unit, esp. for the price.

The solenoids are identical to the Orbit 13v DC battery solenoids. The base of the unit appears that it would be interchangeable with the base of the older models of the Orbit timers (4 years ago). The internal connections have since changed. I've have not tried these yet but I am sure they are going to do just what I need them to do. My Orbits fail occasionally and since it is obvious these came out of the same factory I am sure the will too. But they were a lot cheaper.

I am not typically a review writer so be patient. Have two of these installed and am in the process of installing the third. So far so good. Controller works on other brands of solenoids. I have them on hunter valves with hunter latching solenoids. They work fine and that way you can stay away from the junky orbit valves. I cut off the pigtails and threw away the solenoid that comes with the controller. Controller interface and logic is not the best but it is not as bad as the Node. Sealed body is good and overall seems well built. Mounting is a negative, I had to make my own mount. Biggest other negative is the proprietary pigtail for the solenoid but you can order separately. If these things hold up, you cant beat the value of the controller.

The HRC 900 is the predecessor to the HRC 990 and functions the same. Only difference is in the programing routine. A little more dificult. Since this model is discontinued, you get it for a third of the price of the 990.

It is working. It seems to be great quality. It is made in the USA. In Utah near SLC. Only time will tell if it holds up.
