I use the BRS heater and then use and inkbird to regulate the temperature and then the controller is the backup. This way the cheapest item, the inkbird is handling most of the on and off cycles and is the cheapest to replace.

I prefer to have the heater or secondary heater controller turn the heater on/off. If these components fail the Apex is the final failsafe. I would rather replace a heater or heater controller vs replacing an EB832 that fails from constantly cycling on/off.
