Can (2) MP40QD’s be powered off the same EB832 outlet safely? All the power ratings are in watts and I wanted to confirm before attempting this.

If all is well with the above, each MP40 can still be independent controlled through WXM even though they are being powered off one outlet correct?

Thanks!
 
I control mine thought the wxm but have them plugged onto a wall outlet. Why take up an outlet on the eb832?
 
What are the ratings on the MP40QD's? I have 300 watt heaters connected to EB832 outputs with no problem. Each output is rated to 7 amps, and the total watts for the whole EB832 cannot exceed 1500 watts.

I guess you’re right... makes no difference besides power monitoring. Done. Two free outlets haha. Thank you!

I run 2 MP40s on one outlet no problem with plans to put a 3rd on there. I am using the WXM, but still keep the pumps on the EB832 for power outage reasons! I like having control to cycle the outlet completely off (and not just in standby) during a power outage to conserve battery backup power, then turn it on every other hour to keep things circulating. :) plus the power monitoring is nice!! Every now and then something odd happens!

GL either way!!!
