Craig Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 So I found this on Amazon and I think it would be great for people that don't wanna buy an Apex as it will do basic things like control lights and you can turn pumps in and off at different times. I'm personally buying one to have a better timer for my t5 fixture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley000 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Looks like a powerstrip on timers but digital. Shouldnwork well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 Its a powerstrip with built in wifi so you can control them on your phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 Would be a great alternative for someone like me that spent 15$ on manual timers that are terrible and come on when they want LOL Clint526 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinks to have to drop a bunch of cash when you run out of outlets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share Posted August 6, 2017 No still have my Apex ya no point for me to drop money on an eb8 right now when this does the same thing for cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't move my main lighting to apex either, since I already had a storm-X that can give me full functionality. Let us know how this works!

Craig Posted August 7, 2017 Author Share Posted August 7, 2017 I figured it would be great for people that didnt wanna but a ton of digital timers for lights and stuff. Seems like a great buy for 30$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjh9100 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Please keep us updated when you get this. I'm really interedted. I do have digital timers that I am happy with but I am thinking this would be nice for my sump light and circulation pumps on and off. If the outlets can be individually controlled.

tjh9100 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Although it costs a little more I like the sound of this one because I wouldn't have any use for the usb outlets instead get two constant outlets on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share Posted August 8, 2017 Not bad. I have some stand lights that run off USB but can always hook them to a phone charger also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
