I have five tanks at home. Started yesterday with 4 plugs. Will be receiving another 8. So useful , opens up a lot of possibilities. Some time i would turn off filters at feedings , and forget to turn back on, only to find cloudy water in am. With this i can set timer to restart. Coordinate co2 with on off times of lite if running different hrs. This going to be sooooo much easier. Thank for the info, great video 👍

Can you set the timer to only come on a few times a week I'm looking to automate my misting system a bit better and I don't want them on every day
@alscritters1565 жыл бұрын
It's crazy, I'm about to create a video of using smart plugs to automate your aquarium and vivariums!!! I also used the Meross smart plugs, I've had my aquarium equipment as well as my vivarium equipment(lights, air pumps, water pumps, etc) connected to them and it makes life easier, previously I tried using the digital timers but those were a hassle and expensive sometimes they didn't even work. Love how the Meross app allows you to do schedule, but also control the switches even if your in another state as long as you have connection(wifi or data).

I must be really dumb because I can’t figure out how to set my plug in the app to turn on in the morning and off at night. It keeps saying that I have conflicting schedules.

Does anyone know If this app works, turning the aquarium lights on and off maybe every 4 hours is every 7 hours or do you have to set them to turn on and off at a specific time?

@sayurasem5 жыл бұрын
3:45 is there any other brand that you can “group” these outlets? I know you can use the app to turn the switches individually, but it will be annoying to tell Alexa four times to turn on all my tanks when I don’t have my phone around.
@DilettanteCulture5 жыл бұрын
I believe Alexa you can actually set "Groups" but I'm not sure as I don't use it. You can use "Stringify" to set it up (it's easy) but I only have the 75 gallon I wanted on voice commands so that's all I did.
@tentyme15 жыл бұрын
sayurasem no you don’t have to, it’s so simple a cave man can do it lol. Just set each timer up individually for what you want each tank to be and the app does the rest for you. You don’t have to tell Alexa to do anything. You can set them up in groups if you like so you can have the filters or heaters in one group and when you go to do a WC just tell Alexa to turn off what group and you won’t have to unplug all the heaters during a WC or the wave makers. Very convenient.
@sayurasem5 жыл бұрын
Tom Gorski thx, the reason I asked is because sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and watch my tanks while the lights are scheduled to be off. It would be nice just to say “alexa turn on all lights” instead of asking alexa individually lol.
@tentyme15 жыл бұрын
sayurasem that’s fine too. All you do is just put each timer in the group marked “ fish lights “ for example. Then just ask Alexa to turn on the fish lights and they will all go on. Regardless of what the timer is set at. You over ride it. Once you tell them to shut off when you go to bed they all go back on the original time they are set for.

No idea why anyone would have been using the regular timers for the past couple years. 1st thing I did when I saw these timers all over amazon was to grab some. Makes no sense other than cost. And now they are so cheep and simple to set up a schedule. just tell Alexa to tell it what to do if you need to do a WC or something, hands free. So much more convenient.
