I just picked up an ACJr from a fellow reefer. It's coming with an extra DC8. Can these be daisy chained?

Yes, you can. Be sure to set the second DC8 to have a different address range than the 1st one. Refer to the manual found here: http://www.neptunesys.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=49&Itemid=48

Be aware thought that you will only be able to use half of the 2nd DC8, as the ACjr is limited to controlling 12 outlets.

Guess 4s better than none. What happens to the other 4 (non-controlled)? Do they get steady juice
or are they decommissioned?

No control = No juice.
