Apex el

[Wildreefs]

I am looking to get a controller, don’t have one currently.

Aside from the salinity probe, orp probe and 0-10 volt outlets, what else can’t the EL do that the full apex can?

I wouldn’t be interested in the orp or salinity part. I run my radions and Vortech a thru the reeflink. I don’t think the 0-10 port would do me any good.

Can the EL run the dosers and the trident Down the road as is, or does it need some type of upgrade or module?

Basically, if those 3 (probes, 0-10 volt) don’t really apply to me, should I still consider the full, or save the $300 and go with EL?

Thanks

Apex classic to Apex EL and Trident

Merry Christmas to me! I am upgrading from classic to EL with Trident :) Any tips on smoothly transitioning over? Any tips on Trident?

The EL will work just fine. Why not just purchase the bundle? That's what I did and I have no regrets.

The apex is something I couldn’t afford right now, down the road type of thing. And it doesn’t sound like you save anything with bundle, ($799 plus $599 for trident-$1399) or am I missing something?

The link I sent you is $1,099.90

I gotcha. I see that now, for the xl, ($499
Plus trident $599-$1099 total) does it have additional accessories one wouldn’t get when just buying the xl and then the trident separate?
