The ball valve is the bottleneck of this controller. Over time, the gland gets knocked off, as the ball spins only in one direction and the controller starts to flow. The season is not over. I bought three pieces (for three irrigation zones) and they all flowed. I will change to something else, but not a ball!
Adding some photos was a no-brainer to better illustrate my experience.
