    I think it's better to have a timer but either way is ok...Thumbs Up Just make sure you don't run your battery down if it's left on all day...

    Actually both. The top of the switch activates the timer function and the bottom is manual or continuous.

    mine will do both like yikess said, just depends on where I place the switch. Spring of the year you are ok with a timer, but the hotter the water gets the more air they need

    Timer is more better. This time of the year, I set it for as low an on time as it will allow. Heck, with this water temp, you can throw 'em in a bucket and they'll live for a day. Spring I set it about once every 5 minutes. Even in the summer, I set it for about 50% on and 50% off....the fish are gonna keel over anyhow for the most part, but I want that motor to crank when I hit the key and dang the fish. Now, in a tournament, I'd run it on constant in the summer, but I do keep jumper cables with me as well.

    A lot like the old Wannabe... except with fewer bad words. And Karate chop action. But, yes, still purtier than you.
