Jabeo controller help

[Guppy breeder]

My jabeo controller went out on me last night, I was wondering if there was anyway I could DIY my own controller? Has anyone done this? I know the reef angel can control it, but I don't have enough cash to buy a reef angel.

order a replacement probably the easiest route...

Not looking to order a new one really I understand it's easiest but this is twice its gone out on me don't wanna keep tossing cash into just the controller

You could build one out of an arduino. But some soldering and coding may/would be acquired.

I can't pm back yet, says I'm not authorized

What's a lpf? I have a dimmer knob I was using to control the speed of the pump

You gotta have so many post to pm. Lpf=low pass filter. It will smoothen the pwm signal to a closer to linear one. Requires a resistor and capacitor.
