Want to add another temp probe to my Apex

Yeah, would be good if the power bar (EB8) would have a temp probe port, but it doesn't. I've researched the the Neptune site and others, and still seems like the Apex Jr is my best option, given price, and 4 extra outlets.

The only thing I don't like about it is having 2 separate devices to setup/monitor with 2 IP addresses and different ports. Would be nice if you could hook them together somehow, and have the outlets of the Jr accessible by the base controller and vice versa.

We have Black Friday coming up in the US, so will be watching for some deals. I live 20 minutes from the border, so that is an easy option for me.
