i got mine installed and i love it. So many features. I need to order a few more PC4 modules. So far i have set it to not turn on my MH if tank temp is above 85
UPS is still driving around with mine in it's truck... unless Gresham hijacked it!!!
I think my first setup is simply to monitor temperature & pH without doing anything automated just to get an idea for what's going on without it's assistance (i.e. see how screwed up I've been doing things! ) Then, I'll control heaters/fans/lights, get some peristaltic pumps for 2-part so I don't have to do it every morning manually. Then... oh hell I don't know what then, just sit back and simply figure out what to do next (and yes I realize I could do all of this with a cheaper model of controller)
Yeah, something like a 8 plug module IIRC was maxed at 15A, Now each PC4 is maxed at 15A, with 8A max 2 plugs and 3A max on the other two plugs (as long as you don't exceed 15A you're set.
But yeah, lights and sump in radically different areas, having 2 x 4 is more convenient than 1x8

i think the idea is great but the price is a little steap if it was like 70 bucks for hte pc4 it'll be more reasonable.

70 is reasonable, but 90 is too much??
