High looking to pick up the new Apex. I need more than 8 outlets so am I better off getting the eb8 or a second 832. The only benefit that I know for a second 832 is the spacing of the outlets.

Your thoughts? It is a $100 difference.

I run the new Apex with an additional EB8 and EB4. The only downside is you aren't able to monitor power to each outlet like you can on the 832s. If you aren't worried about that, then I would just pick up the much cheaper Eb8.
