I would love to replace my Wi-Fi strip in my saltwater mixing station with a more wired version like the XP8, but I feel the XP8 is too big for what I need. I will only be using a maximum of four outlets. I would love to see Coralvue Hydros release a mini version of the XP8 with only four outlets. You could call it the XP4.

They have the Launch that has 4 outlets.
 
I have a Launch at my mixing station along with a Kraken, X4, XS and 2 X2's. The
launch only has 4 AC outlets but also has 4 sense ports, 4 drive ports and a 0-10v input port with 4 channels. The XP8 only has the 8 AC outlets. Neither of them have a IP65 rating since both have the AC outlets on them.

Cool. Will the Launch, XP8, X4, XS, and X2 already exist on the market? The post I made for XP4 is for a new product request that Hydros does not manufacture.
 
I already have the XS starter kit in my saltwater mixing station; it is more than enough for me. The only thing I dislike is the Wi-Fi strip. However, I do not need more than four outlets for the saltwater mixing station, and replacing that Wi-Fi strip with a wired four-outlet strip would be a great upgrade.

Upgrading the Wi-Fi strip to an XP8 is just not worth it and would waste four unused outlets.
 
My control board in the garage is behind my work bench and the reservoirs are under the work bench. I use drive ports to control the solenoids for the RODI and a Minnow for AWC and a Sole for ATO all are in the garage. The Minnow, Sole and Launch have not been mounted to the control board yet. The only photo I have is an older one that still has some of the Digital Aquatics modules on it. The RODI is on the wall to the right of the workbench. The Intallab dosing pumps were replaced with the Minnow and Sole. I still need to make a board for then in place of the one the Intllab pumps are in in this photo.

Hydros START is now a cheaper option than the Launch to add 4 outlets. Tho its still around the price of a XP8. Tho you could get rid of that XS with a START as well.

Actually, Hydros Start is the perfect option. I can utilize all four sensor ports and make the RODI smarter under the Hydros umbrella instead of a standalone system using the two drive ports and a couple of solenoids.
 
I think they need to make an XD with 9 Drive Ports or something similar. I seem to always run out of drive Ports.
