Knock on wood I have been running a 1000 Watt Blueline heater on my 200 gallon tank connected to a DC-8. I did not realize until now that there is a amperage limit per outlet on the DC-*. I figured it was 15 amp combined. So what is the better option get two smaller heaters and connect to two plugs; or option 2 run my heater on a relayed expansion outlet. My fear with this is the relay will not draw enough amperage to control the outlet on the DC-8. I do not want to waste the electric having a 25 wall bulb in parallel either. So what are you guys with hight volume tanks doing?
