I have 2 heaters for my tank and I want to set them up in a lead/lag configuration. One heater by itself is plenty to heat my tank and I do not want them running at the same time because it will overload the ups I have my eb832s plugged into. I'd also like the newer of the two heaters to turn on if the older heater fails and the tank gets too cool. Every heater failure I've experienced has resulted in the heater failing open and not heating but I did add a line for both to turn off if the temperature gets too high because one gets stuck on. I came up with programming for both of them and I think I have it right but I'd appreciate any suggestions if I missed something. I've attached a screenshot for both of them. Also, I will be taking some advice I already got here to manage power outages with a relay and breakout box instead of the power to the apex controller, I'm just waiting for everything I ordered to arrive
