Got a reply from them and will be replacing my AP700. Seems as if they monitor these threads. :)

Good to here. There are some manufactures that will stand by their products no matter what and some that well not as much. I've heard good things about Kessil so I rest easy. However any time I have issues with my controller I pray to the gods because I know it's not the same.

I have had two warranty calls with Kessil (bad wireless network card, and blown power adapter). For the first issue, they quickly sent a replacement AP700. For the second, they sent a replacement adapter. As others have stated, top notch customer service.

If I haven't mentioned before the Kessil AP700 fan is absolutely silent, and vs the Radion might as well be off. From what I have seen myself and heard from others (literally) lol, the Radion creates a bit of fan noise.

Did op ever get the AP700? and another question to AP700 owners, when you create a program, and the lights turn off at night, does your fan keep running? Mine seems to continuously run even at night after the lights have gone out. Only way it turns off is I
Of you turn the light completely off (red light on the side) is this normal?

I have so much flow going through my tank, that the only thing I hear is water rippling. I couldn't tell you if it's running, because I wouldn't notice if it did.

I would imagine the fan would run for a bit, even after lights off, to cool itself down...but it shouldn't be 24/7.

Well my lights just turned off for nighttime, I'll check them in a couple hours and see if it's still running.

I did get the AP700 and love it. I use my phone to control it because I can add green and red to the display. Couldn't do that with the iPad app. I have not noticed that the fan stays on when the lights go out. Will check to see if it happens.
