About your dedicated circuit;
Are you planning on more than 1 ?
I ran 2 to my DT and keep the sump on one, with the tank lights and vortechs on the other
Plus my RKL powerbars are plugged into both, so there's no problem with everything going down if a breaker trips. God forbid as I have GFCIs everywhere

Going to do at least 2 maybe 3 - 20amp circuits. Also with running DC pumps & LED's & UPS back ups the amp draw will be much less then what it is now.

Can only go as fast as the shipping company can bring me my major parts & finding free time to work on it.

Is that a scratch? That sucks

Yes it's a scratch about 1" long right in the viewing area of my starphire front. Working on removing it now.

Never going to happen cause I never want to have to do that again unless someone really wants to pay me $100 and hr.

There is a little bit of a distortion but I can live with it as a new piece was not an option @ $600!!
