Hey, users of the skimmer, new version especially, does it have a timer option? Say run for 4 hours then shut off. I read here that people are leaving it running 24/7, and the battery almost makes it. If you are running a lithium ion battery all the way down day after day, you are treating that battery in a way contrary to what I've always read. Lithum ion batteries are not good deep cycle batteries and have the longest life if topped off after a partial discharge. Like someone else here, or maybe almost everyone here, this device looks wonderful, but not at $628 plus tax every 2 1/2 to 3 years. Ouch. So, does it have a timer option? There's no mention of it on the website.
Update. Amazon has 117 reviews of this product. 59% are five star, 6% are four star, and 21% are one star. Reading through the 1-star reviews, I see the prevailing issue is failures after just a few months. A couple buyers had failed units replaced and then the replacement failed in a couple more months. A couple more had difficulties getting warranties honored. I don't know...
