Hello sir. I just purchased an Tree J325 and am determing a plan for retrofitting. Sounds like you have used a few different options, do you like the centroid products best or can you recommend other brands/products. Thanks

There are many options for you to consider. I use Centroid controls because I believe in them. The hardware and software come from the same manufacturer. No trying to make hardware A and software B work together. Further, Centroid is constantly improving the hardware. Centroid also hosts a users forum for Peer support. Visit it, take a look around, post pictures of your project to get input. Take a look at the Success Stories forum. centroidcncforum.com/index.php?sid=6ed517a38285404776af4e60893d05f6
