I have 2 new Finnex 300watt heaters and would like to control them with my Apex but in research I see that the
constant on/off on the eb832 is not good.
I have a new ink bird wi/fi controller that I can use with the Apex just not sure the best settings to use.

Yes you are correct. I use Helios, but it's the same principles. You can use the task bar to do this (easy).
I just set my heater off at 79F (Apex). I run my heaters at 77F on the Helios. So if the heater would stick on then the Apex would shut your heating system down. Make sure you have you Apex temp prob calibrated to your inkbird. It doesn’t have to be accurate, just the same.
