I'll wait until the ALL the bugs are worked out. I think the Trident made me bald.
I’ll lay on the puddle so you can walk over haha

I’m all in on trying one of these outs.

If it costs 600-700 like I have heard ill wait till I can find a used one haha.
It will be a while before that is available, but I get it. It probably won’t be cheap. Where did you hear those prices?

I will try one and see if it works well. If it does then I’ll get one for my secondary system as well, but I will definitely approach it with a little hesitation at first. I’m concerned with if it works well or not.

Apature rep at RAP-orlando said release date is mid May and price is comparable to trident..so right around that $600-$700 range. The trident is $675 as of now.

Y'all went?! I had to work otherwise I would have been there. Did you get to see it?

And yeah, I've heard rumors about that too. I will get one upon release, and if it works, then I'll get a second so both systems have one. I've been talking for years about how revolutionary a reliable, accurrate automated nutrient tester would be. As long as you can actively monitor alk, NO3, and PO4 then it's game over.

Does it have any different functions or is it just an "updated" version of the old one?

What frank said ☝️. Since the takeover/merger with ecotech they added the quite motors. Also changed up programming to allow for continuous dosing for under 60ml. I believe it can do 3.8 gallons a day on that setting.
