Trying to fine tune my settings. Target temp range is 76 to 80. Trying to minimize on/off cycles to conserve energy. Chiller and pump are plugged to single Apex outlet, heaters to another. Chiller set to 80/78.5 on/off; Heater set to 76/77.5 on/off, via Apex temp probe. Chiller (in hot garage) integrated control set to 78 (does not control pump). Is this optimal for 100g FOWLR? Any suggestions appreciated.
 
No you keep the heater and chiller plugged into the EB832? Seems like a lot of draw for it.
 
Per Neptune, each outlet is rated to 7 amps; total for the bar limited to 15 amps. Max current on the chiller is startup 6 amps; 4.6 amps running; pump draws .85.
