The Etekcity Zap wireless controlled electrical outlets switch is possibly a really great solution to some simple aquarium needs. Us reefers tend to over-engineer complicated solutions to simple aquarium tasks but we see great potential for this straightforward and really inexpensive device.
At its core, the Etekcity Zap outlets are wirelessly controlled outlets that are hard-programmed to a remote control. You press the ‘on’ button, and that outlet turns on, press the off button and that outlet turns off. A single remote can control up to five outlets, with a complete kit setting you back a paltry thirty bucks ($30).
With aquarium controllers and computers becoming pervasive in the aquarium hobby, the natural inclination is to program our Neptunes to automate the simplest tasks. But for pocket change you can use the Etekcity Zap outlets to do your bidding at the touch of a single button.
Want to turn on a storm mode for that extra pump to blast off your rocks? Want to activate your protein skimmer neck cleaner for its once a week cleaning? You could do all these things automatically with an aquarium computer but the value proposition of the Etekcity is that you can activate some of these necessary but non-critical tasks with the push of a single button, but you also have to remember to turn them off.
我们希望通过智能和冗余设备和编程来控制和监控很多动作。对于更平凡的人来说,像Etekcity这样的基本无线插座套件可能会做得很好。
唯一的捕捉是,Etekcity模块将在典型的墙壁或电源带上阻塞插座。因此,如果您真的想试用该系统,您将需要投资一些灵活的权力,例如powersquidor Etekcity’s own10件矮的延伸线. [Etekcity]
