I am trying to do research on the Reef Keeper series... I am looking both the Reef Keeper Lite Plus and the Reef Keeper Elite Plus packages (they both have the 8 outlets and the SL1 module). SL1 is necessary for the Ph probe, so it is essential.

What are all of the functions that you have your Reef Keeper performing?

Let see. I have it running my heater, azoo quad cooling fans. MH, k4 evo on wavemaker mode. Moonlights and 4 of my ecoxotic panorama LEDs. I think that's it. I have my 2 mp10s running on a different power strip where I have all my pumps hooked up to. That way when I do wc I just flip a switch and all pumps go out

Keep in mind that mines is a reef keeper 2. It's not as fancy as the ligh or elite but it does the job. I'm sure the newer reef keeper will out perform my reef keeper in every way.

Hey, as long as it gets the job done!

I am just trying to decide between the lite and the elite... I think that either one will do what I need it to do (ph probe/ run the calcium reactor, run the lights, temp probe/ heaters, fans). The biggest difference between the two is that it looks like the lite is limited to 4 modules, while the Elite is effectively unlimited in expandability.

if you were at any point tempted to do a stand alone unit... check this link out.. he's got a regulator and ph probe/controller for $80 !!

Yes I do, nice set-up. I bought it at the October meeting and went the RKE route instead. If you are interested I am negotiable with trades.
Thanks for the reference!
