Have a EB4 that outlets 1 &2 turn off at night but turn back on in the morning. Any idea as to why? Thanks

They have to be set for time on your program to do that

They will not run any lower then 25%(I think thats the percentage). You have from midnight to 8am at 10%.

Whatever feed mode percentage is, is as low as they will go. Kind of like the gyre won't run any lower then 20%.

Found this on neptunes forums:

Using the EB4 to run 2 MP60's and 2 MP40's. All outlets are setup the same. The 60's shut off at night while the 40's continue to run.

Have you logged the outlets and see that they are physically turning off?
