Beware 3rd party temp Probes.

Post by tkeracer619 »

I purchased on a bunch of 3rd party temp probes, they looked good, but didn't hold up.

The original RA temp probes are still working great and are within spec after 6 years. You get what you pay for.

The aftermarket probes lasted less than 4 months and started rusting where they sealed the shell (not the wire end). Buyer beware, aftermarket temp sensors may not be reef safe even if they claim they are...
