For the cost and capabilities, can be a little more user friendly and Surge is a great point. You would cringe if you saw the inner guts of unit- Theres nothing there and how much? I still like mine thoughI started this hobby a year ago Apex-less. Then a local reefer sold me and Apex EL. Now that i have one IDK how i would do this hobby with out it. Im not as heavilly invested in apex like Rich Ross but i do have a lot of there accessories.
Now i love my apex and will say the likes out weigh the dislikes. What I've also found is the way i program my Apex is wrong according to the Apex gurus but its working just fine.
Now the dislikes:
Programing it should be easier. The manual is over 100 pages long. Like make a dumb down version for the me and the idiots in the back.
LLS is so hard to calibrate. Why is the measurements off by an inch? and why cant it be turned on and it just work properly?
EB832 is not a surge protector. LIKE WHY? Why wouldn't you add this feature????
The failures you hear about are a lot and the fact aftermarket guys are fixing these things better than Neptune can is laughable. I will not buy them new as the new prices are to high for what your getting. I just recently bought another eb832 and another Apex El brain with paired eb832 as a back up.
