I believe an aquarium heater controller or heating controller is a vital piece of kit. In this video I review the Inkbird ITC-306A Smart Wi-Fi Temperature Controller for Aquarium.

Finally, an explanation I could understand. Thank you!

@stuartgreen7203 3 года назад

Been running one of these for 18 months. Great piece of kit, easy to setup and gives real peace of mind. So good I’ve bought the 308 for use on my marine tank and will use a fan cooler as well. The D-D controller is another good choice, I almost went that way until Inkbird was mentioned. The D-D lost out as it was more expensive and had no smart features.

Good to know its be working a while for you 👍

@chuffy-t3272 7 месяцев назад

Omg thank you for this video it answered all my question unlike the other videos of this product

@sl30aquatics 3 года назад

Great video Graeme! I’ve had my inkbird running since Christmas and I’ve been very happy with it, 6months in! I’m just running the one heater so can’t speak for control of two heaters but two probes controller and single heater use- I’m very happy. Only negative would be a unusually complicated WiFi setup process!

@AquariumAdventures 3 года назад

Agreed - "follow these 17 steps and it might connect to Wifi - if not, press this one button and it will work instantly" WHY MAKE ME TRY THE FIRST BIT!

@pof1991 Год назад

Just got one I love it few teething troubles but understanding it more now,and your vid helped a lot thanks ,I still get an alarm after 6 hours because I need another heater in my tank should have 300 watts but only got a 150 in there ,another 150 on the way as I speak. That should sort out the continuous alarm setting thanks again for information 😊

@Seanmmvi 3 года назад

Good job! I have one that has heating and cooling plugs. Very handy here in California where it gets super hot in the summer. I have it turn on fans if the temp gets too high. They are also great for monitoring the temperature of your tank remotely

@AquariumAdventures 3 года назад

I imagine that would be very useful over there!

@christopherdeegan3272 Год назад

Great video graham one of your biggest fans but broke heater sticking on tend to suffocate the fish rather than boil them as oxygen count is lower the warmer the water

@passenger3 3 года назад

I wouldn't go without an Inkbird on any Tank - they are essential imo and must have !

@rosshale2384 3 года назад

Excellent review, just the job for non techies like me, seriously considering purchasing one 👍

@AquariumAdventures 3 года назад

Good choice!

@stewartgraham2495 3 года назад

Thanks mate just ordered one now.

@brandonellis4422 2 года назад

So would you set your actual heaters above the max value so that the controller is cycling power rather than the thermostats on the heaters shutting on and off repeatably?

@AquariumAdventures 2 года назад

I set my heaters slightly higher than the controller, yes.

@apgeiger4143 Год назад

What are you white lights in your video. I have a white red sea tank and love those.

@tubbyly1265 Год назад

Weird my working light isn’t on. Having issues

Hello, it’s been 2 years since your review of inkbird controller and is it still working for you? Thanks love your contents

@ChowWithLau 3 года назад

Nice little review, Graeme. I like the looks of app functionality, my nicrew doesn’t have that. Would like a tutorial on that one if possible. Also I received my stickers this week, thank you 😊 Ps I assume there was no livestream last night because of the football. Pps I’ve hit 1k subs this week!!!!

@AquariumAdventures 3 года назад

Yes, had a night off for the footy - huge congrats on 1k!!

@ChowWithLau 3 года назад

@@AquariumAdventures Shame the match didn't live up to expectations. Your livestream would have been better ;) And thank you! Hopefully I can kick on from here

@sb633 2 года назад

Thanks for this. I've just got one and the "Chinglish" instruction manual is terrible. I'm fairly confident now that I'm not going to boil my fish.

@TripleJAquatics 3 года назад

Another nice vid! Thanks

@AquariumAdventures 3 года назад

Thanks for watching!

@JayAreOne 2 месяца назад

It doesn't pair with 5G wifi it so can't setup the controller. Returned mine.

@binky2301 3 года назад

I find with my Inkbirds that you have to set quite a narrow temperature range or the damned 'heating for too long' alarm goes off. Otherwise a great bit of kit. Much easier to control via the app than the unit BUT you can't cancel an alarm from the app.

@AquariumAdventures 3 года назад

Did not know that - will be fun when it goes off and I'm not home but the family are! 😂

@binky2301 3 года назад

@@AquariumAdventures Four times, at 3am... Until I worked out how to program it so it didn't happen!

@gavinkiely5467 8 месяцев назад

Still working well??

@spidy278 2 года назад

ok so 2 heater plugs there provided is actually not for 2 heater on 2 separate tanks?

@AquariumAdventures 2 года назад

Correct - two heaters in one tank, not two tanks

@aquariumaddickuk 2 года назад

Setting the thing up was 2 hours of swearing while downloading the seemingly endless stream of inkbird apps.i gave up in the end & was ready to send the bloody thing back to China. Then it suddenly connected.how/what I did I will never know But it works a treat!🤣

@AquariumAdventures 2 года назад

I know that feeling!

@andrewspeedyatkinson 3 года назад

Thanks for the video I mite have to get one. Also would you put the probes in the sump where the heater is or the tank???

@aquariumaddickuk 2 года назад

I placed both probes at opposite sides of display tank.sump usually reads a little hotter as heaters are in there

@TheCusch 6 месяцев назад

why cant we use it for 2 tanks?

@AquariumAdventures 6 месяцев назад

Only one probe

@simonpidgeon949 2 года назад

@spy8464BB 4 месяца назад

Oh well. Back to Amazon. Worked great for 4 days but now it's totally misbehaving. Trust me. I spent hours/ days on making sure I was set up properly. I'm pissed. Not drunk, but mad. Great concept but crappy end product.

Who's here for wi-fi set up ? # and there's nothing here 🤣🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
