Aeromixer Aerobuddy Timer & Power Controller

Take the Guesswork Out of Mixing and Aeration

Running an Aeromixer at full power on a fixed schedule works fine for some setups — but smaller tanks, gentler compost teas, and more delicate mixing jobs often call for a softer touch and a more flexible schedule than a single-speed pump can offer on its own.

Aerobuddy was built to give you that flexibility. It pairs a variable-speed controller with an interval timer in one unit, letting you dial in exactly the level of agitation your mixture needs, set precise run times, or control both together — taking the guesswork out of mixing and freeing you from constant monitoring.

While it's designed to pair with an Aeromixer, Aerobuddy isn't limited to one job: it's also compatible with fans, pumps, lights, and other equipment, making it a flexible addition to a wider setup beyond just your feed tank.

Key Features & Benefits

• Two tools in one unit: speed controller + interval timer — combines variable-speed control and automated timing so you can manage agitation and schedule from a single device.
• Expands what your Aeromixer can do — lets your Aeromixer mix gently in smaller tanks than previously recommended, or brew compost teas with softer agitation.
• Three control settings (Speed, Timer, Speed + Timer) — lets you choose precisely how much control you need for a given job — power level, run time, or both together.
• Set-it-and-forget-it automation — automates intermittent mixing and aeration cycles without requiring constant monitoring.
• Compatible with fans, pumps, lights, and more — extends its usefulness well beyond the Aeromixer to other equipment in your grow space.
• Backed by a one-year warranty — comes with manufacturer support for the first year of use.

Who Should Use Aerobuddy

Aerobuddy suits Aeromixer owners who want finer control over mixing intensity and scheduling — particularly anyone working with smaller tanks, brewing compost teas that call for gentler agitation, or simply wanting to automate mixing cycles instead of starting and stopping the pump by hand.

Getting More Out of Equipment You Already Own

Beyond fine-tuning your Aeromixer, Aerobuddy's variable-speed control and interval timing can be put to work on fans, pumps, and lights elsewhere in your space — though it's worth checking with the manufacturer of any non-Aeromixer equipment to confirm compatibility with voltage regulators before connecting it. One controller, several jobs, less equipment to manage individually.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Aerobuddy come with an Aeromixer?

No — Aerobuddy is the timer and power controller only; the Aeromixer pump itself is sold separately.

What does the speed control feature actually let me do?

It lets your Aeromixer mix more gently than its standard settings allow — useful for smaller tanks, delicate mixtures, or brewing compost teas that benefit from softer agitation.

Can I automate mixing so I don't have to monitor it constantly?

Yes — the built-in interval timer lets you set intermittent mixing and aeration cycles to run on their own, removing the need for constant hands-on monitoring.

Can I use it with equipment other than my Aeromixer?

Yes — it's also compatible with fans, pumps, lights, and other equipment, though you should check with the manufacturer of non-Aeromixer products regarding voltage regulator compatibility first.

What's the maximum load it can handle?

It's rated for a maximum input of 15 amps, with cycle settings of up to 30 minutes on and up to 60 minutes off, and it's backed by a one-year warranty.
