I have an old apex jr that I have had in use since 2014. Bought it on secondary market, so not sure how long it was in use before that. Can't complain, got good use out of it.
Came home a few days ago and there was no power on the tank.
GFCI tripped. Breaker on the apex did not, breaker at the panel did not.
I reset the GFCI, and everything came back minutes the lights and heater(plugged into the 4 outlets on the controller unit).
I've done full reboots, moved the plug that the unit is plugged into (since I still have full control, and have temp and amp readings), tried resetting with only a single item plugged in at a time to try to isolate the issue, and I have the lights and heater running on no-apex outlets (on same GFCI outlet w/o tripping it) all running w/o issue.
Send to me that there is something specific with the unit itself.
Anything else I should be checking/troubleshoot?
Will probably run it through everything over more time today for my own sanity check with a separate powerstrip before I call it dead.
Not sure if it is worth sending in the repair, if that is even an option. Considering grabbing another EB8 used to add and pick up the load. Probably the least costly option, since I definitely did not budget for replacing my controller.
