Mine has been working like a champ and, more importantly, been very accurate in the dosing. I'm dosing Alk, Calcium and vodka. I calibrated it and dialed in my dose then tested daily for a while, now weekly and it has maintained it perfectly.

My question is (beside them working great)does it hold memory if it's turned off?my reason for the question is if I have it plugged into my apex and configured with my pH probe and the pH let's say goes above 8.5dkh and my apex turns it off as a fail safe (I manually dose to prevent any equipment failures)will the memory of all the settings still be there?

I have it plugged into my apex as well with a high value ph shutoff. I have only tested twice, but on mine the clock needs to be re-set, though the Doser keeps the programming for each head... |

Something about trusting my entire tank to a $100 pump doesn't allow me to pull the trigger on this one. I need a dosing pump as well, but think I'll spend the change on a GHL.
