Thanks Matthias,

One thing I'm having a hard time to understand, is what is the difference between the digital power bars and the conventional power bars.

On the conventional powerbar, I will have plugged: 1 properbreeze, 1 ebo-jagger heater 250w, 1 ebo-jagger heater 150w, CO2 selenoid

On the digital powerbar: 2 Metal Halide Giesemann Nova II 150w, 2 TEK T5 39w strips. But I can't much understand what will be the difference for me, with the conventional powerbar and the digi one ?

I would like to plug in my return pump (Eheim 1262) to one of the power bars, so that it shut's off if the level of water in the overflow get's too high. Can I plug the return pump in the digital powerbar, since I have 2 sockets remaining ?

Again, still don't understand what's the difference between both of them...

- you can plug anything into any socket - the function of each socket is adjustable in any way you want

"Again, still don't understand what's the difference between both of them..."
- if you have devices with high inrush currents you should connect them to the digital powerbar. All other uncritical devices can be connected to conv. or dig. powerbar - doesn't matter

Is there a reason why each dosing cycle is limited to 300 seconds? I dose my alk with Aqualifter pumps. A little more time would be better. I guess I could dose in 2 cycles.

Any sneak peeks of what your developing for a dosing pump for the controller?

@ Reefer Bob:
It is not really limited. There are 2 options:
1. Use operation mode "normal" and not "dosing". There you can dose 24h if you want. The disadvantage for mode "normal" is the resolution of 1 minute instead of 1 second.
2. Dose up to 8 times one day. Maximum in mode "dosing" would be 8x5 minutes.

Dosing pumps: Coming soon - we are prototyping at the moment.

I don't know what I was thinking of course it's better to dose alk 2 or 3 times a day.

Look forward to seeing the doser. Hopefully it will be a double or triple for use with the Balling Method.
