Apex and Jeboa

GatorScott · May 26, 2015

I'm putting my system together now and just have one last thing to get before I hook it all up to cycle and that's my controller. I planned on getting the Apex Jr for my 75g. I already have 2 Jebao rw8s, which come with separate controllers.

Here's where I'm stuck. I know there's an Apex adapter for Jebao, will it still retain all the wave features and settings with the apex adapter? Or should I just get a Multi-Wave maker controller by Jebao and just plug it into the Apex to use one touch feeding...

Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm trying to put everything together the right way the first time and not have to re-buy stuff.

Here's a pic of my set up begging for water lol
(Doors open because fresh paint lol. Using Jebao return pump as door stop haha)

It will not have the same setting as the Jebao controller but with the APEX you can simple program it to mimic anything from the controller to be honest. If your good with programing you can have the pump do whatever type of mode you want.

Well I've never programmed one but I'm good at following instructions and you tube vids haha so I'm sure I'll be fine. Cuz I'll just get the adapter so I can run from the Apex.

Thanks

Well I can help with that I don't mind at all. Just tell me what you want the apex to do and at what times of the day. Also I can make you a adapter cheaper then you can buy it. Let me know.

+1 - all you need is a couple of resistors and some heat shrink. I've got 2 wp25s connected to my apex with DIY connectors and it's fantastic.

Im not sure about this but I thing the apex Jr does not come equipped with port needed to support the adapter. Might want to check on it, if it does that would be the way to go!
