This one will, pid controller for brewing vats. Rtd (pt100) temp sensor, more linear than varistors commonly used.It just depends how anal you are with temp swings. Some guys really want the .1° accuracy. Inkbird won't do that.
If the return pump wasn't on and the sump just continued to heat, wouldn't the controller just turn the heater off?I use the wifi dual probe with coupon its about $42 on inkbird .com . Saved me twice once i unplugged my heater for maintaince and forgotto plug back in second time when my return pump wasnt on and heat was just in sump. there realy can be many reasons the water in the display is at the wrong temperature and it usauly is a good symptom of a problom somwhere along the line .I dont have an apex if i did this might not be necassary but i find it as a great failsafe especially with the app alerts.
Inkbird Wi-Fi Aquarium Temperature Controller ITC-306A with Dual Probe
I would assume he has at least one of the probes in the display and not the sump. The temp dropped in the display and alerted him to the problem.If the return pump wasn't on and the sump just continued to heat, wouldn't the controller just turn the heater off?
I am confused to how this helped alert you of an issue. Sure it didn't boil the water in your sump but how did you know?
I use a temperature control but again its just to save the life of my APEX.
I don't see how it could inform you of anything other than the heater is broken, not the things people are saying it can do.
i keep the probes in the display there is an auto alert and auto shut off when the heat has been on for an extended period and the probe isnt registering a change. It didnt tell me the exact problem but i was informed something was wrong and needed my attention.If the return pump wasn't on and the sump just continued to heat, wouldn't the controller just turn the heater off?

Exactly. For me its just another set of eye's looking out for me on the tankI would assume he has at least one of the probes in the display and not the sump. The temp dropped in the display and alerted him to the problem.
