SmartPlug
What do you guys think?
I am thinking about putting a heater on the strip separate of the controller just in case the controller freaks out (like they can). Also thinking about powering my Apex with one just in case I am away and something funky happens with the Apex. That way I could turn of the return, ATO but still have the powerheads and a heater going; granted there is power. |
The best thing I ever did and very cheap. See this link for my tank with these sonoff swith
