Not compatible with electronic heaters

Not compatible with electronic heaters. It is not possible to switch off the permanent heating alarm. The permanent heating signal cannot be switched off. I don't know why they removed this feature. It's so annoying that the alarm clock goes off every three days. It seems so easy to add. All I wanted was for the Inkbird aquarium controller to send me a notification when the temperature in my aquarium is too low or too high and only turn off power to the heater when it gets too high. If you…

Ease of use - couldn't keep temperature

I really liked the device and apart from not being up to its main task it's great. Pros - easy setup, two sensors, iOS app, WiFi connection. Most importantly, it has a high temperature alarm. Disadvantages - does not maintain the temperature. I set the max temperature to 78 degrees with the alarm set to 80 degrees. The alarm goes off, warning me that the temperature in the tank is over 80 degrees. This happened several times even after the maximum temperature was set to 76 degrees. Check the…

Two temperature sensors, two relays for redundancy and support for WiFi applications that track trends

The WiFi option on this temperature controller is amazing. The app is also great for graphing temperature peaks and valleys and keeping my temperature within 0.5 degrees. The dual temperature sensor is such a nice redundancy. I find this version comes with two relays to back up another relay in the event of a failure which is such a good option. I wish the LCD was brighter or always on so I can see it from a distance. I use this for my discus bait which can also be used in my reef tank. If you…

Temperature fluctuations of at least 0.7 degrees Fahrenheit.

The instructions are bad, it seems to have been written for another device, similar but not the same. The application is sufficient, but no particular concerns. It registers when the heating time exceeds the set parameter. It would be better if it send email or SMS for high or low alarm. This product is fine for a few uses, but I will not let it control the temperature of my reef tank. I could use it as a backup for a runaway heater. I tested it on my saltwater mixing station before setting up…
