So lately my controller for my varios 6 pump does not come back on when I turn it off, I have to unplug the controller and then plug it back in for it to kick the pump on! Obviously I need a new controller for this and I cannot find a Various 6 controller by itself anywhere online. I did however find a various 8 controller for 79.00 and its a 36 volt which is the same as the Various 6 controller. Will this work?
 
I would check with coralvue to see what the differences are and when they will have the V6 controllers back in stock...my thinking is there is a difference in the stepper voltages... I accidentally ran my V4 on a V6 controller for about a week, no issues that I noticed.
