A reboot of the controller seems to have ended the errant notifications. Never mind & Thanks!

Hello all- I recently added a second pH probe input, "pH" to my X4 system on probe port 2. I calibrated that probe and all seemed to be OK. I deleted my original pH probe input, "sump_pH" that was on probe port 1. After deleting the "sump_pH" input, I started to receive the following...

I have a peristaltic pump running constantly at 2ml/min, which is about 3/4 of a gallon per day. I think this is just below my evaporation rate. I am watching it closely to make sure. Level changes so slowly it is pretty forgiving. Having a level sensor is not a bad idea.

Has anyone noticed in the Hydros iOS app that pH and Temp graphs do not display the latest graph data if the app has been running on the device? For example, I woke up in the morning and checked the app, which was still running on my iPhone. The app was missing the last 9h of graph data. I...

Why not just use the "Kalk Reactor" Output type? It has ON and OFF parameters for your pump, pH dependancy, with an optional section for stirrer motor scheduling.

Nevermind. I did not remember that I set the LED ON/OFF TIMES. They were causing the LEDs to turn off. :rolleyes:

Hello- I have an X4 and a XP8 in a collective. I have my LED MODE set to Breathe. The X4 LEDs have been breathing blue for the first three days, but two days ago I came home and found that they were all off except for a single white LED at the top of the X4. The XP8 has none of the surrounding...

Correction on 3) : The graph becomes shorter because the date and value are added below the graph. This makes sense. On my phone, my finger often gets in the way of the date/value display, so I did not notice that. My bad.

Just updated to the latest firmware and App version 2.6.0. The graph update is definitely a big improvement. I especially like that the SELECT/UNSELECT does not appear when I touch a graph. With that said, I did notice a few issues: 1) My pH graph is now truncated to a max value of 8.1 so I...

Hard to say, but I would buy it. The video was from Jun 17, 2021, over 1.5 years ago. I have heard it can take two years to bring a product to market. Maybe CV is still working on it.

The light bar I linked to says it is 542 mA for the 24" model. I assume that means 6.5W?

Other solutions, like motion sensing LED strip lights from IKEA or elsewhere, can use their own 12v/24v driver and plug into the wall instead of using up one of your Hydros ports/outlets. Food for thought.

I am not much of a DIY type, but I wonder if you purchase a 12v LED strip like this one: https://www.superbrightleds.com/led-light-bar-under-cabinet-lighting-135-lm-ft-12v-barrel-connector-3000k-4000k-5000k+color-Natural~4000K+length_in-24in~2ft and a 2 wire barrel connector such as this...
