Looks great, couple questions:
Any further development on a USB interface?
How many thermal probes can the unit monitor?
Can it control more than 1 fan?

[Ssilencer]

It will take a while for the USB interface, but it is in development.
The "X" version can monitor up to 4 thermal probes (comes with one, but you can order the extra probes).
The "X" version can control 2 fans. (2 120mm panaflos for ex.)

Can it control more than 1 fan?

It can handle up to 12w

^so if your running a tornado youll be pushing it hard hehe

[Golden_Eagle]

If you need such a powerful fan, you can always ask for a custom controller.

Yeap, and your ears too hehehe
If you need to run a tornado, I recommend you to buy a better condenser, but yes, you can order a custom (more powerfull) controller.

Is the fan control based on PWM or turning the voltage up and down?
Can you control the fans based on temp ranges of specific temp probes?

This could be a very useful controller in the watercooling world too... ie if you can get a temp probe into the water loop and control the fans on your rad based on the temp of the water.

[Golden_Eagle]

The fan is controlled by PWM.
The incoming firmware will have an option to set the fan speed based on the evap temp.

We are thinking of making controllers for WC... as always the main obstacles are time and money.

Isn't that the truth. Well my hat is off to you guys on your work, very impressive.

Lol, took a little inspiration from the Vapochill WinCC did we? Looks pretty nice.

does hte value use software?

[Golden_Eagle]

no, G-Froster value has no communications port.

[sin0822]

ok, how much is one? around 100?

Please PM chilly1 for a quote if you are in USA
PM Ssilencer or me from other countries.

[sin0822]

i already talked with chilly1, i just wanted to know how much it would cost if i wanted to put one into my case.

We cannot give you quotes here (against the rules), if you talk with chilly1, he can give you a price quote by pm.

[sin0822]

alright, i already talked a little with him about it.

[Aviator747]

Is it a typo on the first page that it can handle 6 thero sensors for the X version? I still have to get my controller from chilly.

[Ssilencer]

Well, the first page was a long time ago, in a galaxy far away...

[Rabbi_NZ]

Could you update the first post to have specs and pictures relating to each version please?

Thanks

[Ssilencer]

Dont worry, that is the only difference, I will update the first post now

[leejsmith]

I have a value unit on it's way from chilly1 to the uk.
Do they come with install instructions as i will have to install it my self.
Does the value unit include a probe ?
if not will it require calibration

[Ssilencer]

The value unit comes with thermal probe.
I will post installation diagrams later for all of you G-Froster customers

[sin0822]

yess btu chilly1 ussualy instals the probe before hand into the evap. wrapping.
