Aeromixer Aerobuddy Timer & Power Controller

Automate When and How Hard Your Pump Runs

Running a mixing pump at full speed around the clock isn't always necessary, and manually flipping it on and off throughout the day isn't practical for most growers. Aerobuddy combines a variable-speed controller with an interval timer in a single unit, so an Aeromixer pump can run on a schedule and at a speed set once rather than checked and adjusted by hand.

Beyond an Aeromixer pump, the same controller works with fans, other pumps, and grow lights up to its 15-amp rating, making it a general-purpose scheduling and speed-control tool for equipment beyond just mixing and aeration.

Key Features & Benefits

• Combined variable-speed control and interval timer — sets both how hard and how often connected equipment runs from one unit.
• Rated for up to 15 amps — handles a range of equipment loads, from a single pump to larger fans.
• Works with fans, pumps, and grow lights — not limited to Aeromixer pumps, so it doubles as a general equipment controller.
• Covered under a 1-year manufacturer warranty — Aeromixer stands behind Aerobuddy the same way it does its pump lineup.
• Sold separately from the pump — pairs with an existing Aeromixer pump rather than bundling one in.

Who Should Use Aerobuddy

Growers who want to automate an Aeromixer pump's schedule and speed instead of running it continuously or adjusting it by hand, or who need a 15-amp-rated timer and speed controller for other grow-room equipment, are the fit for Aerobuddy.

About Aeromixer

Aeromixer is a small, family-run manufacturer developed by farmers in Southern Oregon, best known for its mixing-and-aerating pump line; Aerobuddy extends that product line into scheduling and speed control rather than mixing itself.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Aerobuddy control an Aeromixer pump?

It combines a variable-speed controller with an interval timer, so you set both the pump's speed and how often it turns on and off from one unit. That removes the need to manually adjust the pump or leave it running continuously.

When would I use the timer function instead of running the pump continuously?

Use the timer when continuous mixing and aeration isn't needed, such as a tank that only needs periodic circulation between feedings. Running the pump on scheduled intervals instead of nonstop can also extend the pump's working life.

Does Aerobuddy work with anything besides an Aeromixer pump?

Yes, it also works with fans, other pumps, and grow lights, up to its 15-amp rating, so it can function as a general equipment controller beyond just mixing and aeration. That flexibility means one controller can cover several pieces of equipment in a single grow space.

Does Aerobuddy come with a pump included?

No, the pump is sold separately. Aerobuddy is the controller unit only, meant to pair with an Aeromixer pump you already own or purchase alongside it.

What's the maximum load Aerobuddy can handle?

It's rated for up to 15 amps, which covers most single-pump, fan, or grow-light loads in a typical grow room setup. Check the amp draw listed on any equipment before connecting it, to make sure the combined load stays within that rating.
