    BOom!

    [​IMG]

    Im using it to control:
    -LEDs on/off only for now
    -Heater on/off
    Will set up soon:
    -pH monitor
    -LEDs dimming (with VDM)
    -ATO or semi ATO (like MrOcean)

    Cant figure out:
    -email function
    -web access (I can access from my Macbook Pro via wifi)

    I always talked about the ApexJr, since I thought I dont need the display. NO! you need a display absolutely!

    nice, getting ready to order mine. Please elabrorate on the need for the display. It has a built in ethernet port and can link to a smart phone and your computer. Although i watched set up vids on them and a call to the geek squad is probably standard.

    The temp and pH probes came with it but the pH is not Neptune brand (pinpoint). I heard a bizarre stories (like pink4miss went through), I only hooked up the temp probe.
