Does anyone know of a water timer that can be hooked directly to pvc? I know how to physically make one that is designed for a waterhose to work inline pvc but was concerned about the amount of water flow/pressure coming through the pvc being too much.

You could hook a water hose timer up inline. I would think that it would have adequate flow for a 3/4 inch pipe. What I would recommend using instead if you are worried about flow is a solenoid valve and irrigation controller. There are controllers that use batteries .
