The latest Update of GCC. the web application 3.22.1 and FW for P4 will let you customize your stream configuration in many way. This is perfect if you have wave pumps (or other pumps) that allow an external 1-10 V signal. According to stream pumps - they are not too many. Tunze is on of the companies that allow an external 1-10 and there is others too but normally in the high price range. I have test the new programming tool with a Tunze Nanostream 6040 and it works very well
I use two Jebao RW8 (an old model) which have an optional WiFi controller (Aqualink S1) that have the possibilities to make schedules of different running pattern. The price tag, the possibilities to make a schedule and the rather compact formfactor (the pumps are inbuild in my background - you do not see them) was the most important reasons why I bought them. But its an old Jebao model, not their best construction and they seems going out of stock nearly everywhere. It has come better pumps from them - more modern and more reliable - but higher price and larger form factor. For the more modern Jebao streamers - there is an optional Aqualink A1 with 1-10 V input - but now we are in a higher price tag because the optional controller is up to around $ 80 for one pump. GHL has announced that they will sell their own stream pumps built on Sicce's construction of Sicce XStream. This pump will probably fit in well in my hided construction and the new programming of stream pumps in my P4 is what i´m looking for. Now to the important question - the price tag.
Its not only a pump you need - you need a controller too, Every controller manage 2 pumps (not only stream pumps - even the new circulation pumps works with this controller) In my case - I use 1-10 V controlled Coral Box cirkulation (return) pumps and only need 2 streamers, hence only need 1 controller. In this hobby - most new things normally comes with a high price tag. I can´t speak for the price in the US for these wave pumps and controller - but here in Europe - the price tag was a real surprise - even with ordinary prices - I can get two pumps and a controller (starter set) for les than € 280 and now during pre sale 15 % on that. Let us put it like this - I have already ordered my Christmas gift
The pumps will be delivered in January - will come back with my thoughts when I got them
Sincerely Lasse
