Well I just got my Apex controller and PM1 module. I didn't realize that the PM1 only lets me control 1 PH/ORP I needed 2. So I just ordered another PM1. but since JLaquatics has all the Apex on sale I also got a PM2, Conductivity Probe and Temp Probe. Mind as well. Freak this HOBBY IS EXPENSIVE. :O Hopefully that's all I will need for now.


GO BIG OR GO HOME !!! LOL

Hey Guys

Got my LEDs yesterday. Thanks MILAD. Just waiting for my Drivers and Heatsink now.

I was surprised at how small the LEDs were. It's about the size of a quarter. All the photos I've seen made it look so much larger. haha. no wonder people have a hard time soldering these things. Good thing I have my microscope.

Also have the new Apex complete with 2 X PM1 module, 1 X PM2 module and hopefully will get up and running soon.

other than that I will keep you guys posted

Thanks
Erick

Try turning one on. Put two AA or AAA batteries in series and hook them up to one LED and see what happens (negative to negative of the series and positive to positive of the series). Now multiply that by how ever many LEDs you bought.
