EB4 vs EB8 and Heater

[rinconmike]

I need to add one more outlet to my setup so I plan on buying the EB4 since it is smaller than the EB8 and put it next to my current EB8.

I notice that all 4 outlets on the EB4 are the mechanical relay outlets where the EB8 has only 2 mechanical relay outlets.

I have a 300W ViaAqua heater that I want to put on the EB. Is the heater better on a mechanical outlet or is it better to have the heater on one of the other outlets on the EB8?

I know I had issue with lights flickering until I put them on the mechanical relay outlets of the EB8.

thanks,

Mike

A 300w heater should be fine on either type of outlet... TRIAC or relay
