Easy Motion-Activated Sprinkler for Cat Deterrence: No Wiring Required

Gardener wants to hook a sprinkler to a motion detector without an automatic system. Looked at Lowe's but can't figure wiring.

Simple Solution

Contech makes a hose-end sprinkler with built-in motion detector (~$40). Easy to connect and move.

Why Not DIY Wiring

Wiring a detector to a pump system requires disabling it whenever you want to run the system normally, and coverage is limited. Not worth the hassle.
