Koolance TMS-200 testing results / review

aquaero imho has best software from them all and also features built in lcd, but is limited power-wise - not the choice for owners of D5/655 pumps.

I don't see why you couldn't physically hook up two analog hubs. The analog hub (which I also purchased with the main BG unit) connects using one of the the 4-pin 'bus' connectors, of which there are two on the base T-balancer. I don't know if the software supports that configuration.

The Aquaero is too tall for the drive bay space I have available. I essentially had a 3/4 height 5.25 bay available, which was just enough room to squeeze in the TMS-200. The top 1/4 of that bay, which is the topmost in my case, is occupied by a 4 x 120mm radiator installed along the entire top of the case. I suppose I could install the LT variant somewhere in my case.

When I was looking at controllers I didn't know about the Aquaero; I only found out about that a couple of weeks ago. It looks like it has similar functionality to these other two units being discussed - T-balancer and TMS. Just variations on the same theme.

Looks like they do offer some add-ons to give additional power for pumps. But why get multiple devices when one will do? Unless the Aquero is vastly superior in terms of functionality or execution, I suppose.
