Pressure balanced valve from a Melnor water timer. The failure types described were from dry rot in the diaphragm and the LCD on the timer would go out, but usually after more than a year, and the unit would run daily for approx. 1yr. on a 9v battery. Sadly I can't find this valve type commercially available.
