"No Longer The Guy Without FaceBook"
I am really considering either an Apex or an Archon. Price point is basically the same, but one is more widely used and the other has additional features. Tough choice!

Nice David! Be sure to keep us updated with how the system works out for you.

okay so update time just installed last night maybe took up to an hour and half, that's me just guessing.
pros: it came pre programed, made setup super easy, also with pre programmed it cut out all the code writing which I was not wanting to learn
cons: ato did not come with brackets, so used old jbj ato brackets. yes the electrical connections are a tad small but manufacturing would have to change. which would mean installing the nut on the float valve during production. the temp probe was a bit short so it limited control placement.
so in the end it appears to be a good little setup, excellent if your on a budget , entire setup so far is 275.00
