I bought a controller for several reasons.
-to monitor and control ph after setting up a calcium reactor.
-I was using dial type timers that never seemed to work consistantly and became fed up with them. On/off functions with the controller so far have worked flawlessly and very easy to change.
-But the biggest reason I wanted one, was to be alerted when an alarm goes off. I have it set to send my cell phone an email if there is a alarm condition.
I have been using the controller for about a month and have had no problems with it. I have only started using the Aquanotes program the past few days, so besides the email notification I haven't used most of the features yet. Some of the features are, tank and livestock databases, tank condition logs and graphs,notebook, remote access,etc. There is also a wave feature that I have yet to use. What I learned before I bought mine was, the more you use it the more things you will think of, that it can used for. So far I'm pretty impressed.
