I have found it easy to connect, name the light run and set intensity. I have had some trouble getting the lights to run on the timers when set. I think the app needs an update to correct this issue. I followed the instructions. It is lighting for a school camp premises and it would be ideal for it to work. Would love a solution. ### 1/5 — Taking this back to the shop *2026-02-10* Here’s an idea. Use an app so you can set watering times / zones etc . Sell the device that has an independent clock which is I reckon twice the speed of ordinary time and randomly jumps forward . Result the 3 watering times get missed or if triggered run for a fraction of the time eg 5 mins not 30 that I set . These products are not fit for purpose . I will never buy another Holman product again . Having spent hours setting up irrigation lines I now have to get friends and family to check the plants are watered . It’s in the garden but imagine a fire sprinkler system that just doesn’t work when you get a fire . ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-01-27, version 4.8* Doesn’t do what it says it does. Manual watering only works for 15 seconds then shuts off. Automatic doesn’t appear to work either. App experience is buggy, confusing, poorly executed. I don’t know how they could make this worse than it is ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2026-01-09, version 4.8* The watering app itself is ok, set up the timer with no issues but the actual product is rubbish. The battery pack isn’t waterproof, fills with water when it rains and rusts out the batteries. No point in a product designed for the outside that leaks and fills with water. 🙄 ### 1/5 — Starts and stops *2025-12-09* In manual mode it works well. BX2 turns on the water and it stays on for the specified duration. In automatic mode it starts and stops every 10 seconds. I’ve followed all the debugging instructions, changed the batteries, varied the water pressure, both up and down - all to no avail. Nothing complicated in the system - just a single watering schedule. Frustrating. And doesn’t give and sort of feedback. ### 1/5 — Holman pond lights and controller *2025-09-17, version 4.7* Stay away from this product and manufacturer Absolute rubbish and app doesn’t work correctly ### 1/5 — Not working anymore *2025-08-03, version 4.7* Battery indication level does not go down when batteries are flat. My Holman was not watering at all as batteries were flat and the app still indicates full battery so I had no idea until I checked the lawn for moisture after scheduled watering. ### 3/5 — What’s the point *2025-05-10* Sure, you can program your irrigation from your phone when in Bluetooth range, But you’ve always been able to do the same on the control box directly. The app doesn’t even show you which station is currently running and requires you to be close to the control box to work. A bit pointless really. How about some smart automation depending upon on location and rainfall? Basically using something from the 90’s. ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2025-05-07* It worked for my first bought it, but then I went to move it and now it won’t work and my phone can’t seem to find it any more. All I’m trying to do is do an update but now nothing is working. The older model was a lot better. That’s the blue one. ## Frequently asked questions about iGardener ### What Holman products can I control with iGardener? iGardener allows you to control Holman irrigation products like the BTX1 Smart Valve Tap Timer, BTX6 and BTX8 Irrigation Controllers, as well as LIGHTSOURCE garden light controllers (CLBW60 and CLBRGB60). ### Can I set different watering schedules for each day with iGardener?
