Temperature display is rarely updated, 308S is the best option for aquariums

Currently (October 2020) there are three InkBird controllers with aquarium sensors. I've tried 306, this 306A (Wi-Fi) and 308S in my fresh and salt water tanks. The 308S model is best suited for aquariums. The temperature display on the 306 and 306A almost never changes. It can track the internal temperature as it changes, but if the display doesn't update I don't trust it. While the 306A's Wi-Fi capability is good, it has an annoying alarm clock feature that makes it unusable for my useโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

No iPhone notification. Pairing with the phone is difficult. The constant overheating alarm cannot be switched off.

When I first got this the iPhone notifications from the app worked, but now as many others have reported they don't. You will not receive a notification on your phone if the temperature is above or below the set alarm level. So if you're not at home to hear the device beep, you'll have to manually open the app to see if your temperature is within acceptable range. The phone notification was the main reason for me to get the Wi-Fi version, so now this device makes very little difference compared

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires an outlet

Extremely inaccurate temperature changes

If you plan on using it in a reef tank, look elsewhere. The first annoying problem is that you have to set the temperature difference to 0.5 degrees. I like it when the temperature difference is a little less than 0.2 degrees from my main target temperature. If my target temp is 78 degrees Fahrenheit then I want the controller to keep it between 77.8 and no more than 78.2, I prefer to turn off the heater at 78. Again a 0.5 temp difference you have to keep it down in is just annoying, I can deal

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
