Aqualogic FTW.

Looks awesome!! Can you send me a picture of your whole setup? How did you tie them in with your apex?Aqualogic FTW.
Yeah... $204 a pop tho. Ouch!!Still shows on Aqualogic's website.
Absolutely! You can see my setup in my build thread here: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/codys-153-gallon-ctc-custom-build-with-basement-sump-room.915426/.Looks awesome!! Can you send me a picture of your whole setup? How did you tie them in with your apex?
I've heard of some others who have the apex set to cycle the 2 sets of heaters at half a day each to maximize their lifespan.Absolutely! You can see my setup in my build thread here: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/codys-153-gallon-ctc-custom-build-with-basement-sump-room.915426/.
I use two Aqualogic controllers and I used Y-splitter power cords to plug two BRS titanium heating elements (one 200 watt and one 300 watt) into each controller so I have a total of 4 heating elements. I set both controllers to the same temperature and let the controllers control the heating elements. Each controller is plugged into a seperate Apex energy bar and each energy bar is plugged into a different 20 amp circuit. The Apex is only set to turn off the Aqualogic controllers if the temperature gets way too high. With this setup I have maximum redundancy. If a heating element fails I have 3 others, if an Aqualogic fails I have a second one running 2 elements, if an energy bar fails I have a second controller on a seperate energy bar running 2 elements, even if the one whole circuit in my house trips I still have 500 watts of heat.

Found someone selling them used. Gonna scoop up the two he has available - super cheapYeah, not sure what BRS is doing. They're not discontinued. I'm adding another one to my system so I have two to control each heater separately.
