I cant remember how the manual states T1 vs T2 but I'm wondering if it just converts whichever is lower to the LCL. Otherwise with the set-up you described, what's the point in using the controller at all haha. I've had the heating time alarm go off when I had it set to like 3 hours and had inadequate wattage. It gave an annoying alarm and my phone went crazy. Didn't give it enough time to figure out what the heaters were doing in that situation.
I guess it can be any number. Just messing around with it for now. There’s no way the tank drops below 73 no matter what even with both heaters off.@workhz there is still one thing with your setup I don't understand. The way you have it setup the heater works for normally controlling the temp (which I guess can be done). If the heater fails with the thermostat staying on, then your inkbird will turn it off at 80 degrees, but then it won't turn the heat back on until the temp gets to 50 degrees. Why not set that value to something reasonable like mid 70's so that your tank won't get too cold if the heater fails on?
Nope the app I have is called inkbird smart, so you're probably right and that's the difference. According the the app store there is also an inkbird plus app. I wonder whey they have 3 seperate apps.Odd that yours doesn’t go to zero. Are you using the InkBird pro app? The manual states to set it at zero to not alarm and the app shows zero for me and I have it set at zero.
Really whether you should leave that low temp at 50 is based upon how cold your tank will get without any heat. If it doesn't get low enough to be detrimental to your tank, then it wouldn't matter.I guess it can be any number. Just messing around with it for now. There’s no way the tank drops below 73 no matter what even with both heaters off.
