Can the timer be defeated so it runs whenever it gets power?
Just shows that though it's a simple circuit, that even I could
design in a couple of hours, and probably use no more than 7 components
that there'll be a place for custom silicon for a while yet.

Can you give any more info about the pump, sounds like it might be handyBTW: This design runs off a single cell, boosts its own VDD, and has
also a HV output to drive a piezo actuator that drives the pump. Also
counts the time between "squirts" ;-)
