what do you really use your apex for.

im going to use the reeflink for my lights. halos cannot lose power so the socket has to be on all the time. really its just for the heater and fan. and check ph.

any ideas?

I use it as my ato. to turn off my skimmer when the cup is full. to tell me if the ato has been running for over 2 hours meaning the reservoir is empty.

What happens if the halo loses power? Does it at least still have the settings remain? Does the clock reset when power is lost?
Thanks

you can install a float switch inside skimmer (with a breakout box) . When the skimmer is full, float switch to trigger and turnoff skimmer.

Controlling fans, heater, kinda cool to turn your light on and off with your phone, ph monitoring, controls two power heads ,checking on the tank when I'm not at home. I was thinking of hooking up a camera to it. It's good peice of mind.

It also has a feed mode, so instead of unplugging your power heads return pump and skimmer, you can set it up turn off all at once. I use that to target feed. If your doing maintenance, you can turn off anything on your phone instead of unplugging.
