We are offering The base price of $139.95 on the Neptune Junior plus temp probe. If you want any probes, back light or control options, use the pull down options. This is for Reef Central members and we must have a total of 7 orders before we start shipping. So we'll hold the orders until minimum is met. From the inquires we have received, this will not be a very long wait.

**NOTE**You'll notice a DC8 option. It's a better price then the current DC4's. It's not available yet though, it could be 2-6 weeks before they are ready to ship. If you choose that option, we'll ship you the controller and backorder the DC8 and ship when it comes in. Everything else is in stock.

You must use this link to order. We can't accept phone calls due to the lower profit margin. If you are uncomfortable about using your credit card online, submit the order without your number and we'll call you for it.

Hi Jason,

I am very interested in ordering one of these units but I would like to get it with 2 DC8's. Is that possible? I am planning on putting each DC8 on its own circuit and I don't think I have anything over 6 amps so I don't think I need a DC4 (orginally I was going to get a DC4 and a DC8, but I think 2 DC8's will give me more flexiblity).

Please let me know how I would go about ordering a unit this way.

Thanks!

I was just checking the Neptune web site and it states that the Aquacontroller JR can only have 12 controllers. So if I get the 2 DC8's I wont be able to control 6 of the ports? If this is true will the ports still be functional (ie be on all the time)? If that is the case then the 2 DC8's are fine because I was going to have 4 or 5 ports that were always on.

Jason, will you be able to answer this for me or should I move this question over to the Neptune section?

Thanks again and sorry for being a pain.

thanks so much for putting this together - it's an awesome deal! any idea on how long you'll be running this? until a certain date or number of units ordered?
 
Hi,

I'm not sure if you can run 2 DC8's since it goes over the max amount of controllable ports. That would be a neptune support question, but unfortunately they are closed for a few weeks right now. So we wouldn't be able to find out until then.

On the sale, we'll run it for about a week or until stock runs out. We have a pretty decent supply, but unsure of the demand too.

thanks
 
Hey Jason - Thanks for the response. I posted my question over on the Neptune forum and it turns out that the AC JR can only control 12 ports so the remaining 4 would be dead. So it looks like I am going to need to go with the DC8 and DC4. Is this possible to order through the group buy? The drop down only lets me choose one or the other. I am planning on getting the backlit display and the lab grade probe as well.

Thanks again for your help.
 
You can use 2 X DC8's on the JR giving you a total of 16 outlets. However, only 12 will actually be controllable. The other four would be dead. A way to get around this is program the other four channels as being always on, then switch them away to control the other channels. You then would be able to use them as just regular plug-ins, however if the power would go out at your house you would have to go back and reprogram them again.
 
Thanks for that info Jeremy - looking at the load on my tank I think I decided to go with the DC4 and the DC8 and just get a decent power strip for the stuff that always needs to be on. I just don't want to take the chance of not having the main stuff that runs all the time (skimmer, return pump, Tunze) not go back on by itself in case of a power outage.

Hey guys - I really wanted to try and get my order in today for the AC JR and the stuff listed above. Any idea how I should go about ordering the package with the DC8 and the DC4?

Thanks in advance.
 
God, wished this was a powerbuy extended to somehow to all aquacontrollers. I would be ordering my AC2 right now.
 
I agree with dgasmd, would be great if we could change the controllers. I would love a deal for the IIPro and even the III. For what it's worth I just got the AC Jr. direct from Neptune. This is such a great deal I may get another!

Thanks for putting together this deal in reponse to the members.
 
Hi,

The special is good for 1 week or until we run out of inventory!! We'll do some numbers on the ACIII's and PRO, maybe after this special we can do something on those.

thanks
 
Great news! I can't wait to see it what it's going to be. This is why I always buy from PA. Awesome response and customer service. oops, gotta go before the wife sees what i'm doing and hides the credit cards.:D
 
If I order the DC8 can you ship it all together when they come in?

So with the DC 8 I could control 8 different devices? which means I can stagger my lights?

Mike
