We just had new gutters and downspouts put on the house, and they are larger then the old ones. Now I need to find a new diverter for the downspout to the rain barrel. Does anyone know of a place online to get diverters for 4 1/2 inch downspouts. The one I found is backordered until June.....I would like to use the rain barrel before then. This is what I'm looking for.
Never seen one shown in your picture. Conventional diverters are usually available at most hardware stores or Lowes or Home Depot. I did a search and came up many places to purchase. The conventional diverters are a lot less expensive than the one from Gardeners Supply.

Scribe, I don't know if this will help you, but here's a link to MY RAINBARREL SET-UP
I had new gutters, leaders, etc. installed a few years back and found a diverter system to have installed the same time the new gutters were put in. I got the diverter system from http://www.gutterworks.com/diverters.html
Last year OG magazine did an article on my rainbarrel system. **Boast, boast, brag, brag. No shame!** So I must be doing something right.
