EMERGENCY! Temp probe needed :(

[rededge2k1]

This evening I was getting ready to pack up and leave town for Thanksgiving, when all of a sudden my tank lights turned off and the chiller kicked on. My temp probe has gone bad and is telling my ACJr that the water is 96°F one minute and 70°F the next.

Does anyone near Brookhaven/Sandy Springs have a temp probe I can borrow through the holidays? Or a new one I can buy from you? If so call me ASAP at 404.409.6504 (anytime)!

Thanks
Dustin

Interesting...I just replaced this probe on Sept 28th, so it's not even 2 months old yet.

I'll talk to the Neptune people on Friday hopefully.

You guys are awesome! This is the kind of thing that makes me VERY proud to be a member of ARC. Too bad the rest of humanity isn't so giving!
