Phil get the apex controller. Its great with the ai

 

[InfernoST]

The AI controller is much cheaper. Does the apex have three channel control?

i downloaded the update but for some reason i cant get it to work!!! what am i doing wrong???

 

[InfernoST]

You have to hold down the button down while powering up the controller, this will put you in the firmware update mode. The controller should come up as a drive on your PC the simply delete the firmware on the controller and copy & paste the new firmware file into the controller. Now just power the unit down then back up without touching anything. Oh yeah, it wont work with a mac it has to be done using a Windows machine.

The apex is the way to go with leds. It gives you sunrise, sundown moon phase thunderstorms and alot more and believe it have up to 10 channel input

 

[InfernoST]

The AI controller does sunrise/sunset, lunar cycle, thunder storms, 15 programmable timers and the ability to adjust the intensities for the white, blue and royal blue leds indipendantly for each timer.

What are the ten channels you are referring too that the apex has?

Hey inferno thanks a lot man I was really confused with it i really appreciate this I'm dying to try thunder storms in my tank, thanks again

The controller inputs for the leds. Can it link to the computer and get real time weather conditions

 

[InfernoST]

No it cant but for 70 bucks it works just fine for me. That does sound like a cool feature though.

Sounds like more overkill, and another way to waste more time on my fish tank.

I spent 10 mins sitting and watching a dual thunderstorm in my dual tanks, in the complete dark. yes it was cool, but I already spend so much time on the tank that I don't need to (or want to), so the less "extras" I get the better

Yeah your right but think how cool it will look will looking at your tank and it looks like clouds are moving over it blocking out the light thats cool
