Default Reef Angel controlleur first impression

I got my Reef Angel this week and set it up in a test system to test it.

I thought it was really easy to set up, as opposed to what I had read about programming etc...none was necessary. Even the wifi was easy to setup with the provided utility.

Now I can watch my tank parameters over the net anywhere I go. I can shut down my MH light if the temperature gets too hot. I even receive email alerts when the temperature goes too high or too low.

I know you will tell me that many controllers can do this, but wait a minute...for 300$, what controller could give me wifi net access and control, 8 outlets, ph probe, ATO and temperature probe? That's a lot for that amount of money.

The only negative is that the cable for the PH probe is like 3' or less, so I ordered the 9$ cable extention for it as well as the extention cable for the temp probe.

For those who are hesitating thinking that it is too complicated to install, it is not so, quite the opposite. I even started to tweak the code to my liking...pretty cool!!! I like the thing a lot!
