Check the hardware store for electronic watering timers. There are some
that work from AA batteries. Hack it open, replace the motor with a
relay. You will probably need a latching relay arrangement or be
otherwise creative as the timer runs the motor for a few seconds open
and closed.

I'm looking for ideas for a stand alone timer to turn on and off a remote
shortwave or BCB receiver and tape recorder. No AC mains available. Switching
requirements no more than about 5 amps.

Haven't had much luck scouring the web.

Ideas?
