Nice, no more burning Aquaeros :D
How about producing some laing poweradjust units for a change? They have been out of stock for ~8 months or so, lol. Or is this cooling mod supposed to replace them?
Nope its much bigger, like an atx connector spacing only 3 pins.Quote:

Get a BigNG it's what I usually use... it has no trouble handling 2 MCP355's.
Already have the bigNg and several miniNGs. I dig the Aquasuite softare which is what moved me over. Mcubed lack of support with software is pure bull:banana::banana::banana::banana:.Quote:

Shoggy, will the Aquaero mod completely replace the Poweradjust pump hardware functionality and features through software as well? Also, does the mod for the 25W Aquaero channel require any extra components?
Get over your fears - how do you think we feel about paying VAT+shipping on all the stuff we order from the US?Quote:

@philomela: we ship to almost every country on this planet. The shop only knows the shipping costs from a few common countries. If you ask by e-mail you can be sure that we also ship to you.
@bluehaze: it is 45W analog.
@bluehaze: there are tons of cables on its way to Sidewinder Computers. Afaik he sends everyone a cable who ordered a flow sensor in the last time.
@jcool: the poweradjust 2 with more power will be available in around two months ;)
@cx-ray: not really because the aquaero will still handle it like a fan but that's not really a bad thing in this case because it will do a start-up boost and will also redo a start-up boost if the tacho signal gets lost. Of course you can control it according to a rpm value or like a fan which gets faster or slower depending on a connected temperature sensor.
To get the 25W from channel 1 you have to add two small SMD resistors to the board.
@WhiteFireDragon: that video is a bit older. The display is using a plugged connector now so it can also be exchanged easily by the customers if they want to switch from LCD to VFD for example or to upgrade an aquaero LT to a full aquaero.
This upgrade of the Aquaero is absolutely great :clap:
I´m already using the Aquaero with a poweradjust @laing ddc and always lamented the missing power of the single channels e. g. for the fans on a quad-rad. With this upgrade the Aquaero together with the outstanding software is a must-have for every control-fetishist (like I am).
So I already placed my order for a new upgraded Aquaero.
@Shoggy
Hurry up with shipment!!! :D ;)
Well no I usually call them directly if I want sth. - they are from Austria what do you expect :rofl:Quote:

@Shoggy: Nice, finally.
There is something you are doing wrong: I do not have to call anyone. Shoggy rang me up a few minutes ago to manage the shipment of my new Aquaero.Quote:

Great time to send an email to them, i was going to buy another one but now im sold, just wish the shipping to Brazil are not that high :)
U guys complain about pay shipping to buy from USA, u should try buy to Brazil lol, usually i pay double the price just in shipping, and sometimes when i get taxed it can be even 3x.
Thats the life :(
Shoggy, is it possible to connect the tacho signal of a pump or the Poweradjust to the flow meter connector on the Aquaero? I realize it won't provide any useful information. I just want to make use of the relay break shutdown feature when the tacho signal is lost. Thanks.
Shoggy, I have a question. Is is possible to change the length of temperature sensors. I know sensors rely on ohm. So changing length will change the value. But how much does that really effect the sensors?
But Flowmeters rely on pulses right? So changing length on them doesn't change a thing right?
And we are not talking to extend the length by 10 meters or so. Just a few dm maybe.
@cx-ray: that will not work. You will have to use a fan connector.
@Brodholm: our electronics guy so I can't answert that for sure but I think that cause measurements.
An extension of the flow sensor cable should be no problem.
I'm guessing by the specs that I would need two of these to control two DDC 3.2s in series?
Yes, because two pumps on channel 1 will draw too much power while spinning up.
or you can use that booster that gives you 3A. then you can power 2 ddcs with one of these. But that will be tight. But you can use 2 boosters if you want. I think he said it will be out soon?Quote:

Would you be able to customize one for me two support two DDC 3.2 pumps?Quote:

It's not an amazing breakthrough in science or engineering. It's amazing for those of us who've been unable to decide on a controller. It fixes the biggest flaw of the Aquaero, making it the top choice by far, IMO.Quote:
