Hey everyone! I'm on the hunt for a multi-hour delay off timer that I can use to control my borehole pump. Ideally, I want a setup where my wife or kids can just push a button to choose how long the pump should run, like for 1, 2, 3, or even 4 hours. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

If I were you, I'd consider using an Arduino with a DS3231 module and a relay for control. It's a solid way to set things up! They can easily program it to have the timer options you want.
Thanks for the tip! Just wondering, is it safe to power the Arduino using a 220V-5V transformer from the same wall socket as the borehole pump?
