Also, what happens if the connection breaks somehow? Is it going to just reconnect on the next cycle?

Yup. Right now I have a 10 second timeout for retries for the 60 second polls, but we can of course set that to whatever. I have further testing to do with things like having the access point itself disappear, but I've done some testing with just refusing connections on the server end (killing it while there was a connection active and also before booting the controller) and randomly cutting and restoring power to the controller itself.
Current setup:
60g 24" custom cube (fish and softies right now)
AI Sol Blue, Ecotech MP-10wES
Coralife skimmer
100% customer controller, transitioning to ReefAngel

How does this scale? Would each controller effectively have a dedicated connection? (e,g, streaming)
