i have the deltec 601 and am using a pin point Ph controller. i set the controller to 6.5 Ph and waa-la. it goes on and off on it's own. must have the Ph probe in the reactor. not your tank

My 601S is still in the box.
Doug's recommendation is to place the solenoid of your regulator on a timer but I've read where a few peeps have it on a controller and nothing bad has happened just as Dave described.

Hey warren, did doug ever change your collection cup

No he didn't Dave. I never really expected him too either.

Use a controller. Worry free operation. Be sure the probe is in the this first chamber (if a dual chamber system).
