Review on 🌡️ Inkbird WiFi ITC-308 Digital Temperature Controller: Advanced Aquarium Thermostat with Waterproof Sensor for Heater and Cooler by Rebecca Marie

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent temperature controller

Delivered on time, well packaged. I used the same brand (Inkbird) for my reef tank. However, this has Wi-Fi capability that the older version didn't have, making it more convenient to set up by phone. Would give 5 ⭐️ if the app was that easy to link to the recommended app. I used the Smart Life app instead. It took me less than 5 minutes to set it up using the Smart Life app to pair and make adjustments. The recommended app was frankly lousy and useless. Another thing is that the temperature monitor graphic display is a bit unexpected and initially shows from 0'-80'F. It would be better if chart range indicator could be set to preferred range with adjustable 5-10 points above and below preferred ranges. . For example, if I had to set my preferred temperature to 79'F and set the high temperature alarm 3 points up and 3 points down, the chart reading could range from 76-87'F or be rounded up to the nearest 10 (70-90 ). 'F) Chart display. It's a waste of space to have 0'-80'F when you're using the ranges of 79'F and above. However, the graph adjusts for the rise in temperature but leaves most of the lower numbers on the display. The chart also shows readings at 15 minute intervals, a 5 minute reading interval might be more efficient. amazing, except for a few that I mentioned above. The product is very sensitive to switching from heating to cooling. The temperature sensor of this model is waterproof, ideal for use in the aquarium. Also a great feature of the product is that you can see on the app display what function the controller is using, sky blue for cooling and orange for heating alongside the actual temperature. read the set temperature. For its precision and accuracy, both the old and new devices displayed the same exact temperatures to the last decimal place.
