  • Are you tired of aimlessly searching for your hidden lawn valves?
  • You tried digging holes in the yard and poked the ground with a screw driver.?
  • Googled for a solution only to find expensive valve locator equipment?
  • Unable to find a "PRO" that would charge a reasonable price?
At last, a simple device for locating those pesky hidden lawn valves. Just connect the Chat-R-Box between the controller and the valve wire of the valve you are trying to locate. Turn on your valve then the Chat-R-Box® causes the valve to emit a "chattering" sound allowing you to locate the valve. The Chat-R-Box incorporates a solid state circuit which rapidly turns the valve off/on creating the "chatter" sound. The Chat-R-Box uses a simple 2 wire hookup and relies on the power of your controller, eliminating the need for batteries.

The Chat-R-Box was born out of necessity. During a scorching Texas summer, in 2013, a portion of my yard had turned brown, and I suspected a faulty irrigation valve. For two weeks, I searched for the hidden valve. I poked the ground in countless spots, dug holes with a sharpshooter shovel, and left what looked like a yard full of gopher holes. Frustrated, I turned to the internet for answers. My options where hire an irrigation tech for $250–$350 or buy an expensive valve locator for $800–$1,000.

None of these options made sense for a simple DIY job.

I developed the Chat-R-Box in 2013 after I spent 2 weeks digging up my yard and flower beds. Since I only needed to locate the valves and couldn't justify the need to spend hundreds of dollars just to locate a lawn valve.
