My new toy..

Bob 1000 · 09-15-2008, 04:08 PM

Still working out all the balances and wire lay outs but it's been steady for 3 days now.. In about 3 weeks I'll know if it's enough for a whole tank or I need to lower it..

I have been playing with the timer to make it sit on the ends for about a minute....

IT rotates back and forth?

Wouldnt it makes sense for it to rotate more like the sun ?

Bob 1000 · 09-15-2008, 04:21 PM

It goes from left to right across the tank..
