    With it being powered by android I bet theres a high possibility of it being able to do that.

    And the other thing that pisses me of is the stuff that's supposed to be Apex ready. Ready my ***. You still have to push this and that and update and reset and blah blah blah. Then link the equipment. And then you have to program. And of course you had to spend money on some special module just to do it.

    With you on that. I have a **** ton of modules between my 4 Apexs. Ill probably just go with a reeflink for all my ecotech products and be done with it.

    I have thought about reef link but haven't heard much good about it.
    And I have vortec pumps upstairs and in basement. I already have 2 wxm. I am not buying 2 reef links.

    I still need to update firmware on my radion so I can link to apex. I had some trouble. I will get it eventually. But I had to take a break from it before something got broke. Lol. I am just running that on ESL.

    I have been looking to buy a controller and this deal popped up at just the right time! I pre-ordered 2. Too good of a deal to pass up!

    I could have sworn that I posted in this thread asking when the cutoff date was. I ended up ordering one the other day. I was hoping they would be able to have a PWM output instead of 0-10v but I guess that's only good for the DIY crowd anyways. The guy that did a bunch of my graphics about 3 years ago in exchange for a scrubber works for Vertex now (exclusively, so I can't use him anymore, which sucks because he was really good). I've been chatting it up with him on FB.

    In case anyone else was wondering about the cut off. There is no set date. Once all of the units they set aside for the sale are gone, then the sale is over. They projected 1-3 weeks, but really do not know.

    Well. Now we know why it's so cheap.
    I still want to see one up and running. I am curious how people like them.

    The only thing that comes with normal packages that this didn't is the pH probe. Otherwise it's pretty much the same as an apex. The vertex pH probe is also cheaper than neptunes.

    Took the plunge and pre-ordered one also. It will be my first controller so hopefully it is the right decision.

    I e-mailed Aquarium Specialty yesterday and got a response this morning stating that everything was delayed another week. They expect to receive and ship next week.
