Description
Clickerunique design works with all
24 VAC valves except RainBird valves and Toro 53380 valves. Cheaper locators will
not
work with many other valve types
.
Clicker
energizes your irrigation valve solenoid ten times a second to produce a loud clicking sound. Locate the valve by simply listening while walking the area of the zone.
Clicker
is easy to connect. Just disconnect the station wire from its terminal and connect the
Clicker
to the wire and then to the terminal. Detailed step-by-step instructions with search strategies are included.
Cheaper locators use a single diode rectifier (a 10¢ part) to attempt to "chatter" the solenoid 60 times a second. But many solenoid brands can't respond that fast and so fail to make any noise at all.
Clicker
solves that problem by energizing the solenoid at a lower rate so that the solenoid has plenty of time to respond. Why waste time and effort on a cheaper product that may not work with your valves?
Clicker
is guaranteed to make
all
working 24 VAC solenoids click or your money back with free return shipping.
Since the valve is buried, the sound is muffled by the valve cover and the grass, dirt, mulch, etc. that covers it. Some valve brands make more noise than others. (AFAIK, RainBird valves are the quietest.) Typically, the clicking can be heard within about six feet of the valve. Successfully locating valves may require a quiet environment with calm winds so early morning or late evening may be best.
Features:
Works with most brands of working 24 VAC valves.
Simple to connect and use.
No batteries to replace. Uses your system's 24 VAC for power.

7 inch leads (red, yellow, green, black or white) with alligator clips.
Clicks valves ten times a second.
Detailed instructions with search strategies included. See last two photos.
Will not harm your valves since it uses the system voltage to click the valves.
Way cheaper than hiring a professional.
Limitations:
Locates only valves with working solenoids.
Does not work with DC latching valves, RainBird valves and Toro 53380 valves.
If used as instructed,
Clicker
is safe to use. But I’m not responsible for any damage to any part of your irrigation system. Use at your own risk.
Clicker
is intended to be used by the DIY homeowner to map the locations of all their irrigation valves before there is a failure. Valves do fail eventually. If the solenoid fails (with an open or short) then the valve will be much more difficult to find. It's worth the time and effort to make a map of your system now so that when a valve or solenoid fails it can be easily found and repaired.
