Orbit B-hyve XD 2-Port Smart Hose Watering Timer — Dual-Outlet Bluetooth, Weatherproof Battery-Powered

The Orbit B-hyve XD 2-Port Smart Hose Watering Timer is a weatherproof, battery-powered dual-outlet controller that automates and customizes outdoor watering via Bluetooth and optional Wi‑Fi.

Take the guesswork out of yard watering with a compact, two-zone smart timer built for homeowners who need simple, reliable irrigation control. The B-hyve XD pairs with your smartphone to schedule and manage two independent hose outlets, and it leverages local weather data to reduce overwatering. Its rugged, weather-resistant housing and battery power make it an easy add-on to spigots, raised beds, containers, and smaller lawn areas without running wiring.

How does the B-hyve XD manage two different watering areas?

The XD model has two separate outlets so you can set unique start times, run lengths, and watering days for two zones from the same device. Each outlet operates independently in the app, so one zone can water more frequently while the other stays on a lighter schedule.

• Two independently programmable outlets for separate zones
• Individual run times and start times per outlet
• Manual or scheduled operation from the mobile app
• Quick local control with onboard buttons if needed

Can I control the timer from anywhere and will it adjust for weather?

You can manage schedules locally over Bluetooth and remotely when paired with a compatible Wi‑Fi hub. The system uses weather-aware logic that factors in rainfall and temperature trends to shorten or skip cycles, helping prevent unnecessary watering.

• Bluetooth setup and control from your smartphone
• Optional hub adds remote Wi‑Fi access and notifications
• Weather-based adjustments to conserve water
• Real-time schedule edits and manual zones activation

What makes this timer durable for outdoor use and easy to install?

Designed to sit at the faucet, the B-hyve XD is battery powered and housed in a weatherproof enclosure that resists rain and sun exposure. Installation is a simple twist-on to a standard outdoor spigot—no tools or wiring—and batteries are accessible for quick replacement.

• Weatherproof casing for outdoor durability
• Battery-powered—no electrical wiring required
• Tool-free, twist-on connection to standard faucets
• Visible LEDs and tactile controls for local adjustments

How does this device help save water without extra effort?

The timer’s smart watering algorithms modify run times based on recent and forecasted conditions, which reduces waste while maintaining plant needs. Combined with two-zone control and precise scheduling, you avoid blanket watering and target specific landscape requirements.

• Weather-aware algorithms reduce unnecessary cycles
• Targeted schedules for different plant areas or beds
• Manual override for watering after dry events or maintenance
• Simple setup minimizes user input after initial programming

Who is this for? The Orbit B-hyve XD 2-Port Smart Hose Watering Timer is ideal for homeowners, gardeners, and renters who want dependable, low-effort irrigation for multiple small zones—such as container gardens, flower beds, vegetable plots, or split lawn areas—without running wires. It suits anyone seeking better water management with app-based convenience, whether you value hands-free, weather-adjusted schedules or the ability to fine-tune two separate watering circuits from a single, durable device.
