Checked both heaters and they're both 300w
Inkbird failing?
- Thread starter Dmac
- Start date
My research on the Inkbird is they are prone to failure. BRS suggests replacing once a year. I'm sure they would like us to replace everything once a year
but true.Scratch that, my heater was set at 78. Explains that
hahaha
Thought I had the issue resolved but still going on. I don't know why I can't figure out what's going on here, LOL. I plugged up a second inkbird I had that was working just fine before I took it offline. Now I've got two inkbirds running two heaters. The wifi version (I calibrated it after the readings I got from my other thermometers) is set at 77° but won't read a temp above 67.8° and just keeps heating. The other ink Burger said it's 77°, it's reading a temperature of 76.7°, but I haven't seen it turn on the second heater yet. Are they both crap? I got to get this figured out before I go out of town on Friday
what is the hysteresis set too?
76.7 is likely not low enough to trigger at a setting of 77 - it's a safety feature that prevents wear on the heaters - you don't want them kicking on and off every 30 seconds trying to maintain a very tight range.

Is you temp probe on the inkbird clean and in the water? If it comes to surface or is pulled out accidentally it will read ambient temp.
