+Daniel Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Bought this about 8 months ago from eBay. It saw little use from me since I primarily used evaporative cooling when I had metal halides. I had it serviced when I first bought it to ensure there were adequate levels of coolant-- everything was fine and it still runs great now. I'm looking for $180. Here are the specs: Titanium Heat Exchanger - Corrosion resistant titanium backed by a lifetime warranty offers the peace of mind High BTU Compressor - Energy efficient 1485 BTU compressor delivers more BTUs than any similar size chiller on the market - providing more coolling power while requiring less electricity Fits Anywhere - the small size (10" L x 11" W x 14" H) make it easy to fit under almost any size aquarium Ultra Quiet - compressor runs virtually silent; rubber feet eliminate vibration noise Integrated Dual Stage Thermostat - controls both the chiller and an external heater up to 300 Watts (heater not included) Stylish Design - molded cover looks sleek will not rust What`s included: Each Prime 1/10th HP Chiller includes an integrated dual-stage digital temperature controller, 1/2" & 5/8" inlet/outlet barb fittings, 6 ft. power cable and complete instructions. Chiller Sizing Guide Temperature Difference from Ambient Degree Pull-Down 10°F 20°F 30°F 40°F Aquarium Size 80gal 60gal 30gal 15gal Note: Accessories such as metal halide lighting, submersible pumps, etc… can add a great deal of heat not considered in the above chart. Decrease volume by 25% to determine the horsepower needed to chill that amount of water. Horsepower: 1/10hp BTU: 1485 Volts/Amps: 115V/2.15A Inlet/Outlet: 1/2in & 5/8in Temp. Range: 60-80°F Thermostat Type: Dual w/ Thermal Expansion Valve: No Dimensions: 10in x 11in x 14in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Daniel Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 To answer some of the questions... This chiller helped me keep my 90G aquarium between 79.5 - 80.5. I was running 2x250w MH and 4x110w VHOs in a poorly ventilated canopy, and a 150w Mag 18 return pump. Most people probably don't have that much heat being dumped into their tank. I also used a clip-on fan as a my primary cooling. The chiller only went to work if the temperature rose above 80.3. As I mentioned above, I had it looked at by a technician a few months ago and everything looked good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Daniel Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 Still have it, but I'm tempted to put it back in operation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
