Hello... I am storing a few rechargable whipper snipper batteries in my
garden shed along with other assorted batteries. I want to time my charger
to give them a charge say 1 day every two months or maybe one day a month. I
know if I go out to the shed and just plug the battery charger in I'll
freaking forget about them and they'll charge for a freaking week before I
remember. (I'm 51 and my mind is toast...70"s were real good to me lol)
Anyways...I googled "monthly timer" etc and found nothing that would
help... is there a 110 volt timer that will do something like this? If you
run across this would you mind posting a link? Thanks folks.. Jim


7 day timers are quite common and I'm very fond of the Diehl timers.
I like their synchronous motor drive timers rather than the standard
electromechanical timers that you may see everywhere. The mechanical
timers will wear out but I haven't had a Diehl timer quit yet. You
can setup a 7 day timer to charge the batteries for a short time once
a week and I think you'll have no problems with the batteries. The
Diehl timers have a motor drive but the power switching is handled
by a relay rather than the standard type electromechanical timer in
which the timer motor actuates spring loaded mechanical contacts.
That's the part that wears out on the old style timers.

It's funny that distributer is named "Borg".
