If I were you, I would wait and purchase a III.

90 seconds huh? You either drive VERY fast or your office is next door

BigAl07 · 07-07-2007, 12:41 PM

On a good day I could probably get a frisbee from My front porch to My office.... if traffic is VERY heavy it takes 3 minutes to get to My office.

you crack me up!! I wish he was into SW like this!!

But yes I do LOVE My work.. I get paid to do some really cool and fun stuff.

I think I will get the NAC Jr. later this month. I really need a controller ASAP!!

A controller is like indoor plumbing. Once you have it, you'll never live without it

KMP · 07-08-2007, 08:45 PM

ditto! i'm sold just on the fact that i don't have a bunch of timers!

Yeah I was looking inside my cabinet tonight and I was shocked at all the CRAP is in there. If I were a fire marshal I would shut my tank down.

So WoodStock, if I buy the Jr. what else do I need to purchase with it to be able to control (timer wise) 7 different items? Do I have to also purchase a DC8 in order to be able to do this? Or does the unit come with some outlets already built into it?

Allen

Woodstock · 07-09-2007, 06:23 AM

It depends on the package deal. Make sure a DC8, temp probe and a PH probe come with the unit. You can buy another DC8 later if you need to.

That is great advice. I purchased the controller, temp, ph probe, DC8 together and then found a DC8 for $159.00 (new version). I love having the PH Probe. I just ordered the PC Serial hookup and the moon lights so I will let you all know how those work out.

Woodstock · 07-15-2007, 07:10 AM

Ahhh.. do report back on the moon lights! I currently have 1 blue LED (PFO) that works great but I would like to have the 'dimable feature'.

It's on it's way now. I got an AC Jr (w/serial port), Temp Probe, DC8,PH Probe and 10 each of some kind of testing fluids for $304 including S/h. According to UPSdotCOM it left the facility within a couple of hours of my order yesterday and is scheduled to arrive here to My office tomorrow! It's time for my HAPPY DANCE!!

Woodstock · 08-01-2007, 09:11 AM

Awesome price! You're leaving work early tomorrow, right??

BigAl07 · 08-01-2007, 09:36 AM

It should be here TODAY now! It's on the truck for delivery to me here in the office today. UPS runs here approximately 1-3pm so I'm patiently watching the clock...

Yeah it's entirely possible I'll have to run out to a "job-site" around 3:00pm today
