apparently can get full refund..after listening to some sucky voice from the distributor..

i just paiseh for victor...cos keep troubling him...

if they have not changed the unit, maybe u should juz ask for another unit to test. if still cannot work, then get the refund and we all get wiser on the resun specs although i still suspect urs is faulty.

tansh, here are the parameters that i juz took.

cl-650 using eheim 1260 from sump to UV to chiller IN and chiller OUT to sump last compartment which contains the return eheim 1260.

set at 26

ca at -1

ambient temp around 29-31 depending on if i close the balcony door and mh light

with 1x250W SE 20K bulb on, 2x30W t5, 1xPL 11W, 2xeheim1260, 1xrio2100, 1xeden228, 1xsicce extrema, 1xboxer 1500l/h powerhead and 1xtunze6060 all running, water temp is 27.8 when chiller kicks in. chiller temp shows 28 for a minute or two.

chiller stops after 40 mins. chiller temp shows 26 for a split second before it hits 27. water temp is 25.9 but immediately jumped to 26.2. suspect my cheapo digital termometer not so accurate.

without mh, the chiller takes less than 30 mins. on a cool breezy day, can be 15 mins.

cheers!

Untouchables,

I have 4x2x2 tank.

2x 250W + 1X 150W.

Do you think this resun can work on my tank ?

Thanks

Thks for ur feedback.

After setting my chiller CA to -1 and temp set to 27 seem like better than before.My chiller cut off for 20min and kick in for 5min when lights on,temp in my sump tank show 27 for the mercury thermometer and 26.1-26.5 for my cheap digital meter.If without lights on it take longer time to kick in but still take only 5min to chill.

Im using weipro4000 rated at 2700l\h from sump to maintank for the chiller,reason using high rated powerhead cos my hose from sump to maintank distance very far around 3-4m.My main tank is 3X2X2 and 2.5X1.5X1.5 for the sump tank,total 3 weipro4000 powerhead in my sump tank,dymax matrix 4X36watt pl lights,dymax OB 2X30watt t5 blue light.
