So what are people using to control their tanks without going the normal controller route?
In the past I've used an Apex. I've done a bunch of "new" research into the current Apex and GHL models, but I really don't want to spend $500-$1000+.
I'm looking for minimalist/cheap ideas.
Currently I have 3x AI HD 32s, so they are controlled by their internal schedules.
I'm also using an Inkbird controller with my two 200W heaters as safety/backup.
I just received my order of an AHRise Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip (AHR-083). It has 4 Wi-Fi controllable outlets and 4 always on outlets. I'm using two of the Wi-Fi outlets to control the sump light and skimmer (both will run overnight).
Not really much else I'd want/need to run at this time. I don't currently dose anything or do any other "special" things.
I'm trying to keep this go-around simpler, so hit me with other ideas.
