These heaters default to 79c when the power is restored when using the on board controller & temp probe, why not just use the controller & temp probe that comes with the heater?
I have 2 in my sump and the controllers work very well for me.

If they fail on, have the safety of the Apex to kill the power to them, no brainier. Redundancy, and fail safes are the way to go.

Thanks I was wondering of the default bit figured it out buy unplugging a couple times. But I do want the added security of the Apex. Even the best heaters can fail

Along that thinking tho, so can the controller outlet. I just had to move my heater off an outlet that sticks on.

Yes but then the heater control should shut off. Right?

Just adding ALL heaters fail. P

Very true. My outlet for reactor sticks on. Just hoping both don't fail at same time. Lol
