Hi Guys,

I own this awesome piece of kit but have yet to connect my heater to it (currently only have my fans on it) , I know there was a discussion somewhere on the setting of same to allow for down time so both fan or heater remains off to save electricity. I currently have my temp set at 25 degrees and the delay at .5 degrees, so basically my fans switch on only once 25.5 is reached and switch off when 25 is reached. I assume once temp goes down to 24 then the heated comes on.

My question is what temp, delay time and heater setting should I aim for in order to ensure that the heater and fans are not constantly on trying to compete with each other. I hope its is clear and hope it enlightens others using it.

Apologies if this is not the correct platform to ask this.
 
@Hammerhead
they will not fight each other if both heaters and fans are connected to the stc-1000. If your temp variance is set to 0.5 degrees either way and say it gets to hot and the fans come on and start cooling the tank, once your desired temp is reached, it is extrememly unlikely that it will still drop by another 0.5 degrees in order to trigger the heating circuit.
