To be honest, I'm finding them to be quite a pain in the butt to program via my PC. Compared to the Ecotech anyways. Once I get that figured out I should be happier with it.

The light spread is actually what sold me on it. I tested out a Radion and found that I was going to need 2 to get the coverage I wanted on the tank.

Hoping to weld up a light rack for it this weekend.

i wasnt too sure on the programming as i havent had a chance to play on the pc with them too much as far as programming goes, cant wait to see some pics.

i gotta say you picked one hell of a line up for equipment on this tank this is gonna run pretty smoothly for ya

Once you get the hang of the light composer you'll like the program, probably not as simple as ecotech but it does a lot more in the end.

I hope it runs smooth. I may still add a dosing pump to the setup down the road, but that's about it. I've put so much into the build I got nothing left for livestock..

I actually got my light rack welded up here at the office yesterday after work. Just need to get a couple coats of black paint on it and pick up was rubber weather stripping so it does slide around and scratch the euro-bracing.

My main issue so far has been that no matter what I tell it to do at night at 9 or 10pm (ie. all leds off) at 12:09am the HV come back on for the night until the first stage of the program starts in the morning. So basically, I can't get them to turn off at night except for 2 hours between 10pm and 12:09am.

I'll play around with it more tonight and see what happens.

It maybe your moonlight setting, go to the channel that stays on and uncheck the moon simulation.

Also make sure you have a zero setting in the morning, ie at 9pm @ 10%, 10pm @ 0%, 7am @ 0%, 8am @ 10%

Thanks.. Will give those things a try tonight!
