| Totally back   | I've seen one in person finally. It wasn't hooked up yet. It was much smaller than I expected, works very smoothly. I can't believe how simple it is. Just a housing with a motor on top and a hole on the bottom with 4 holes on the sides. The motor turns a housing on the inside to switch the open ports. Too simple. As far as head loss, it appears it is the same as adding 2 90elbows to your plumbing. Perhaps just one 90 on some ports depnding on how you plumb. Very cool to see the thing on, it appears to be a very good alternative to acctuated ball valves, no way to program it really, but still, it appears solid and simple, and quiet. Mike |

| Torch coral   | I have been trying to follow the threads on RC, and it appears these are working as advertaised... When my move fell through, I stopped looking, though I think it is going to work out here real soon. I expect that I will be using 1-2 of these on a 180... though I am not real sure what my other half will say...  They look great to m. I am looking forward to the randomization of my water flow... Mike
