Lost my DOS tonight. While trying to figure out what was wrong I noticed when I disconnected my DDR from the system . My DOS would come back on . What do you think?
 
I had that happen also.....along with a lot of other electrical issues related to the DDR (optical sensors failed several times....main board had to be replaced twice). I ended up ripping out all of the electronics and just using it as an expensive dosing container.
 
Took DDR down started to drain. ( had it on top of clothes washer ) unit fell and cracked into three pieces . And that's how it all ended .

Normally I would say that is a bad thing.....but honestly I am not sure that is the case when it comes to the DDR lol. I am a big fan of everything Apex, but I would not recommend the DDR at all. Like I said, mine is just an expensive (although good looking) small, acrylic dosing container. Got tired of diagnosing and replacing sensors and boards.
