pH fluctuates with wifi blue light
Posted: Fri Jul 05, 2013 6:16 am
Hi guys.
For a while now my Wifi has been loosing connection and the blue light starts to flash. I have to unlplug it and plug it back to get it back online. But I have also been having issues with my PH probe where the PH value continuously fluctuates from 7.8 to 8.5, it is never stable for more than a few seconds. My ph graph looks like a scatter chart.
Today I noticed the issues are actually related to one other. I recorded it on video so you could see for yourself http://youtu.be/L5tAypJbJso
My PH only fluctuates if the wifi attachment looses connection and flashes its blue light. If the wifi attachment is connected to my network or if I unplug the wifi attachment from the reef angel the PH is dead stable.
When the blue light comes on it flashes a few times and then stays solid for a few seconds, its at this moment when the blue lights is solid taht the the PH value goes crazy. Another thing I noticed and I am not sure if its clear enough in the video but the green power light has a slight flicker at that same moment when the blue light is solid.
At the time I recorded the video my PH was 8.15-8.16 which you can see when the blue light is flashing.
What could possibly cause this?
