Would love to see a video of this when it's all working.

Maybe not the "fun" of it, but the satisfaction that these creatures survive because I care for them is definitely part of it. I don't understand why people pay all that money for a tank setup and then pay someone else to maintain it. Where's the sense of responsibility? I guess some people...

Wow. I was shocked by both stories.

I believe Kyle meant the "Nutrient Export" mode, which is one of a few extra modes you get with the Eco Smart models.

Its a PCS20 and the plug has a L5-30P marking on it... which is weird because the manual says it should be a 20A plug.

Not sure if anyone has seen the floor plan or the vendor list lately, but it's just about full already! Only a couple booths available.

I thought it was a smiley chart! :) :( ;)

Thanks for the information Paul. That helps a lot. It is in a finished room, surrounded by finished rooms/walls, and is on a concrete slab floor... so unless the wiring is setup for 20A and/or the conduit is large enough to pull new wires through... I doubt this will happen. I'll check out my...

OK, time to throw a monkey wrench into this picture... I forgot that I was recently given a Raritan PCS20 Remote Power Control Unit, which I think would be ideal for my situation. It has 20 outlets that can be remotely controlled via a computer over the internet! Only 2 problems though: 1. I...

Thanks Jim. I might take you up on that offer. I'll let you know.

Thanks for all the ideas guys. Still not sure which one to choose but at least now I have plenty of options.

I'm getting very close to finishing my furniture for my upgrade and now I'm trying to plan out all my electrical / controller setup in the tall side cabinet I'm making. You can find details of the furniture in my Upgrade Thread, but basically, I'm planning to mount all of my controller...

Happy B-Day Dan!

Sounds like they probably made a mistake by making it 15% originally, but they did eventually honor it after you showed them proof. They likely figured you would complain to others if they didn't make good on it, so they caved in on the 5%. As far as the mandarin, as long as you already have...

I use a cheap EcoSmart 23w CFL bulb like this. I've had this one in for about 2 years now and it runs about 12 hours every night. My macro grows like a weed and it's very low wattage.

Absolutely incorrect. I have Verizon wireless and can use GPS navigation, receive texts, and search the internet all while being on a phone call at the same time (using a bluetooth of course) with my Droid RAZR Max. The limitation of voice/data at the same time is only with some phones, not...

That's an easy one Paul... It came from the Caribbean! :tongue:

Thanks Paul, I think those will work! Don't worry, I was already planning on pre-drilling the holes... more to protect the oak trim wood it was going into, but also for the soft aluminum too. I could find SS hinges, but I've already cut the Alum ones that I bought down to fit my canopy doors...

I'm in the process of building my new stand/canopy for my upgrade and I recently bought aluminum piano hinges for my canopy doors. Unfortunately, the hinges didn't come with screws. I was originally going to just buy some SS screws for them, but I researched it and apparently SS will make...

I know a few people in the IT field and all of them swear by those Tripp Lite surge protectors. Probably too late now if you didn't have one, but for anyone reading this that wants to learn a lesson... definitely look into one of those!
