  • 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.

note -  for Rainbird systems you'll need the Chat-R-Box Pro, click here to purchase the Pro model.

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 could'nt justify the need to spend hundreds of dollars just to locate a lawn valve.


The Chat-R-Box works on all 24 v.a.c. lawn valves. The Chat-R-Box works on many brands of valves including, Orbit, Hunter and Irritrol (excludes Toro & Rain Bird).
