Thanks Levi! The reason is because i got the hood fan for free from my sister She renovated her kitchen last year and decided to use a different hood fan after purchasing that one and she didn't get around to returning it to the store. It was sitting in her garage collecting dust so I dusted it off and installed it. I'm not a huge fan of it (see what I did there?) but it gets the job done and was free. I might look into getting a new one next year.

By the way, I am currently in the market for a new refrigerator. Just thought I'd put that out there. *wink*wink*nudge*nudge*

Merry Christmas and Happy Boxing Day everyone !

Hand's up who likes coming home from vacation to find a dead controller unit ?? Anyone? Anyone? FRAK.

On another note, does anyone know where I can find a new Profilux 3 quick? I've tried all my LFS and apparently GHL now sells direct to customers, which means they are shipping out of Germany ? I don't know if I can wait that long. Maybe Michael has some in stock still. I should PM him.

I have dealt with GHL directly before and the shipment was considerably quick. Probably a week or something.

Not sure I can wait a week considering my tank has been without control (lights) for about a week now. And without my head unit I'm relying on the heaters built in thermostats directly which is kinda scary too. I think one (out of 3) of them might be busted (stuck on) but thankfully it's only 250watts so probably (maybe, hopeful; yay prayer reactor!) won't nuke my tank?

No doubt. A problem I could do without at the moment. Now I'm facing the possibility of yanking out my entire GHL infrastructure and either switching to Apex or ditching the controller all together and going old-skool with a programable power bar for my lights and a Ranco for my heater. Know where I can find a Ranco ??

Zoro Canada A single stage non-prewired runs around $70 and $30 for shipping (in CAD). They ship from USA, hence the hefty shipping cost.

If you are in, I can chip in to share the shipping cost with you. I need one too but the shipping cost is keeping me away from buying it.

You wanna hear more First World Problems? I lost every single frag that I ordered from Fragbox a couple of weeks ago thanks to this controller crapping out. No tank heat for 3 days. *sad face* That's what Scrooge brought me for Christmas. Bah Humbug !

We should talk to Dave to get him to order some in for us and his shop!
