    Anyone have any information on this. Much cheaper but can't find a list of differences between the heavy and Lite version.

    The Lite version has no variable speed pump ports (for Tunze's), does not have the pH probe included (but you have an option to buy one with it at a small discount), and only has one port for a pH probe - if you want to monitor ORP and pH you have to buy an additional module or get the full version.

    Well that makes it easy. I will only measure PH and Temp. I run MPs, so I don't need Tunze control.

    Thanks

    Very good. It's a fine controller. By the way, the Vortech control module will be released Q1 2010 - if you have an MP40W you can make use of the module when it is released.

    Sweet, haven't even heard of that one. Off to go look it up.
