Pinpoint or Medusa

marinelife · 08/04/2006, 12:08 PM

I need a controller, I have dual stage medusa controller running my heaters and 1/2hp chiller. This is my second medusa controller that has stopped working, so my quesion does anyone use the Pinpoint Dual stage controller, if so do you like it?

you can get a controller for your entire set-up for the price of a medusa or pinpoint controller. Possibly neptune or Reefkeeper 2, and they are able to manage both your heater and chiller. Unless you already have one that is......

What else do I need to control?

Also my understand from some of the specs I looked at that the reefkeeper would not handle a 1/2 hp chiller. The pinpoint is only $185

ok so I got a Pinpoint, now the funny thing, the temp it reads is 3 degrees lower than my other one, I see no way to calibrate it. I have the floating thermometers in the tank plus a TBS meter that has a temp probe in it. All read a different temp, what is one to do about this?
