Well the first one was having screen problems where if I touched any point on the front of the unit the screen would go blank. It also wouldn't turn lights on an off which I'm having problems with on my current one. It doesn't matter what circuit I put the interface or the X10 timers on, the controller will just decide whenever it wants to turn things on and off. I've woke up at 3:00am once to find my MH's on. My biggest reason for the X10 timers on my MH's is to shut them off if the tank gets too hot. It does do what I've programmed most of the time but not all the time and then it will do whatever it wants the rest of the time. I'm basically only using it for Temp, pH, and ORP readings at the moment.

Well, for temp, once you've got your chiller fixed and keep it clean, it will manage temp just fine. pH and ORP? Why?

I don't have to much problem with equipment, I have had a heater stick, but I shouldn't have used an old one I had laying around.. most of my stuff is people problems.. in other words my own stupidity.
