Jayron Hour Meter for Zero Turn Mower — AC/DC 5–277V LCD, IP68, 50‑Hour Service Countdown

Jayron Hour Meter is a rugged, panel-mount LCD timer that tracks total engine run-time and provides a 50-hour service countdown for zero-turn mowers and a wide range of small engines.

This compact hour counter records operating hours from AC/DC 5–277 V input or via spark plug wire induction, so you can accurately monitor usage across lawn tractors, generators, pressure washers, and other equipment. Built for outdoor gear, the unit offers an IP68-rated front, a visible hourglass indicator while counting, and a non-resettable total-hours display to preserve service histories. Its snap-in ABS housing and included gasket, bracket, connectors, and panel label allow tidy dashboard installation and reliable performance in demanding yard and jobsite conditions.

How does the meter detect run time on different machines?

The Jayron meter accepts a wide voltage range (AC/DC 5–277 V) or can sense ignition pulses from a spark plug wire, making it compatible with both electric-start and magneto-style engines. The hourglass icon flashes when it is recording, providing an immediate visual confirmation that tracking is active. Because the total-hours counter is not user-resettable, it preserves cumulative runtime for maintenance logs or rental tracking.

• Voltage input: AC/DC 5–277 V for alternator or battery sources
• Spark-pulse option: Inductive sensing via spark plug wire
• Flashing hourglass: Confirms active counting
• Non-resettable total: Keeps reliable lifetime hours record

What service reminders and reset options are available?

This hour meter includes a 50-hour CHG OIL countdown that begins counting down from your set interval and shows a one-hour advance reminder before service is due. After performing maintenance you can reset the service interval without affecting the preserved total run-time, letting you track individual service cycles separately from overall equipment use. That arrangement supports routine oil changes, filter replacements, or scheduled inspections.

• 50-hour service countdown with one-hour alert
• Resettable service interval independent of total hours
• Keeps cumulative hours intact for records
• Visible LCD prompts to reduce missed maintenance

How do I fit the meter into a control panel or dashboard?

The meter’s snap-in ABS body requires a 1.48 x 0.96 inch cutout and the supplied gasket and bracket give a clean, sealed installation. Overall dimensions with the gasket are 1.81 x 1.22 x 1.46 inches, so confirm the panel depth and wiring access before installation. The package contains connectors and a label to simplify wiring and identification on tractors, ATVs, or equipment consoles.

• Required panel cutout: 1.48 x 0.96 inches
• Overall size with gasket: 1.81 x 1.22 x 1.46 inches
