Maybe it was the app they were talking about (it was on this site). With Apex it is easy to find a ton of people to ask "what do you think?". I havent met anyone that uses ghl to control. So I have to stick with what I see in forums and reviews. So far, Ive generally seen that ghl is generally passed up for Apex.I don't know if you just miss worded that or what but I have never heard anyone say that the GHL controller is crap. I have only heard that the Interface is not very intuitive and the whole package is expensive. If the Ion Director came out it would mean that GHL had a lot more things than Neptune.
Even without the Ion Director the GHL has items like an SMS Module, Humidity sensors and their own lighting systems, plus better dosing pumps than Neptune. Neptune has the Calcium and Mg reading and pumps over the GHL but as I said with the Ion Director GHL would have that and a few other water tests.
Im kind of over Apex. I have never had an issue with any of the Apex equipment I have. I just got tired of their pricing models. They want 400 for the base unit, but will sell the whole kit for 500. At one point they had an offer for the base unit and probes for 250. what the heck? So, why are you trying to sell me just the base unit for 400???
I know it's whinny, but Im just tired of it. I have the classic Apex and only want to upgrade for the wifi. I have put the base unit in the BRS cart several times. I just cant make it make sense. Im just ready for something fresh.
