I'd also give props to the BRS brand dosers. They're out of Italy I believe and they work great on my controller.

I owned a aquamedic twin for over a year as well.

Problem is it siphons.....back siphon - forward siphon...what ever. It comes with small one way valves....but they soon clog up. Also the controller is soooo stupid. When the power goes off it doesnt loss the programing but you have have to hit two buttons to get it working again.....**** poor design.
