Good thing I have auto topoff

[Elite]

With the heatwave is here, the fan running 24/7 on my tank. It causes the water to evaporate fast on my nano.. My tank is only 79 degree which is a good thing 8) ..

ATO...best investment I ever made. I used to top off 5g/week on my FW tank. Drove my wife nuts when the water went low and the return flow made splashing noise.

So did anyone have heat problem today? two more days to go.. Tomorrow suppose to be the hottest.

 

[Gomer]

I think it hit 110 in Livermore. Tomorrow is supposed to be 108.

 

[GreshamH]

In Santa Cruz it went cold instead of hot today When I left for work it was 75 @ 8am but when my friend got to my house @ 3 he said it was still 75 and all my fans were on KICK ASS so my tanks where actually cooler then normal

 

[GreshamH]

But I can't see more then a few miles due to all the smoke from the Big Sur fire

 

[Elite]

Yeah that fire is out of control. We need some rain..

Phong,

Which ATO did you end up getting?

 

[Elite]

I got the auto topoff dual switches. It barely fit in the back of the aquapod.

[GreshamH]

I use the same brand of float switches as what Phongs are made with but i did the work myself. Very reliable float switches

 

[Gomer]

I have the exact same as phong.

I was thinking about DIY but with my electronic skill, I might kill myself while testing it ;D ..

Mines all 6vdc so no real risk of getting hurt Well, if you busted open the wallwart and grabbed the AC terminals you might get hurt :lol: No soldering needed in that project
