Orbit Programmable Digital Hose Timer — 2-Outlet Model 58910, LCD, Rain-Delay, Water-Resistant

The Orbit Programmable Digital Hose Watering Timer (2-outlet, model 58910) automates garden and lawn watering with a dual-outlet programmable controller, built-in rain delay, and an easy-to-read LCD.

Turn an ordinary outdoor spigot into a flexible irrigation hub that runs two independent watering lines on a single faucet. This battery-powered Orbit timer offers customizable start times, run durations, and repeat schedules so you can match watering to plant needs and local conditions. The water-resistant enclosure and simple digital interface make it a practical choice for homeowners who want reliable, hands-off irrigation without installing a full in-ground system.

How do I program the Orbit timer for different plants or zones?

Programming lets you assign separate schedules to each outlet so one line can water delicate flowers while the other serves a lawn or raised beds. Use the LCD and intuitive buttons to set start times, durations, and frequency for each outlet independently.

• Set up to two independent watering programs (one per outlet).
• Choose start time, run duration (minutes or hours), and repeat frequency.
• Quick-copy options simplify creating similar schedules across outlets.
• Battery power means settings stay with the unit without wiring.

Can the timer prevent watering during rain or high soil moisture?

The device includes a built-in rain delay feature to temporarily suspend scheduled cycles when natural rainfall makes watering unnecessary. Activate a 24-, 48-, or 72-hour delay to avoid waste while monitoring local weather or soil conditions manually.

• Three rain delay durations: 24, 48, or 72 hours.
• Pause all scheduled events without erasing programmed settings.
• Quick resume after the delay ends or cancel the delay at any time.
• Water-resistant housing protects controls during wet weather.

What reliability and durability can I expect outdoors?

The Orbit 58910 is built for outdoor use with a water-resistant casing and battery-powered operation to avoid exposed wiring. It’s backed by a six-year limited warranty for defects in materials and workmanship when used in private residential settings.

• Water-resistant enclosure shields electronics from splashes and humidity.
• Runs on batteries for simple installation at any outdoor faucet.
• Sturdy connections fit standard hose threads for secure attachment.
• Six-year limited warranty provides long-term product protection.

How will this save me time and water compared to manual watering?

Automating start times and run lengths removes the need to hand-water, ensuring consistent irrigation even when you’re away. Precise scheduling reduces overwatering by delivering only the programmed amount at set times.

• Automated cycles eliminate daily manual watering chores.
• Custom durations and frequencies prevent excess runoff and waste.
• Rain delay reduces unnecessary cycles during wet weather.
• Two outlets let you water different areas with tailored runtimes.

Who is this for: Homeowners, renters with outdoor faucets, and gardeners who want a simple, reliable way to automate two watering lines without in-ground installation. The Orbit 58910 suits small lawns, multiple planter beds, garden rows, and drip or spray hose setups where separate schedules are helpful. If you want straightforward programming, rain protection, and a durable battery-powered controller that converts a faucet into a two-zone irrigation system, this Orbit timer is designed for that purpose.
