I used an inkbird in the mother tent. I started hooking up exhaust fans and oscillators to my old Controller 69 and stopped myself short.. it's a mother tent that I don't intend on pushing the plants in, so passive airflow and set oscilations it is.
Inkbird handles the heater and humidifier. Controller 69 will likely either be a contest prize or a raffle item at this point.
If I wasn't going to try out AC infinity's pH and EC probes, the flower tent would just get an inkbird as well.
Inkbird stuff I use is really solid and worth every penny. It doesn't get kicked out of here like other brands. They make the CO2, temp, and RH monitor I use, the plug in thermostat for my exhaust, the heat controller in my extraction kit, and my meat probes & sous vide lol.
The other thermostat I use is Hydrofarm new old stock but built to handle huge loads from an AC or heater.
Inkbird makes a dual stage temp and rh controller that would be top of my list if I already didn't have what I have. That's one of the few controllers that does temp and RH, not one or the other, since it has dual outlets. That the one you have? Lots of controllers only do one or the other from a single outlet.
AC Infinity has done a real good job saturating the market and planting ideas that people need all of those devices to grow. I would agree that growing in tents adds a difficulty with less room for error requiring tighter control but when I see something crazy like a dehuey and a huey running at the same time, shit's down the rabbit hole.
I kinda go back to earlier in this thread and mobility issues...Not too sure ACI or any of those folks are really looking at that. Dealing with those issues, I find myself prefering remote controls more than phone and app control.
Tables, winches, & fans all have remotes and that is way nicer than needing to open up my phone.
I also like the temp displays and stuff like that in the room. Looking at that stuff on my phone is nice but it's so much easier to include a glance up at the monitor while I'm in the room to have and stop to mess with my phone or tablet.
The closet space in my room is where half the new analog and partial digital control is installed on the door frame of the closet.
Inside is the water supply barrel and on the other side of the door frame is where I've been stowing the remotes using 3D printed cradles to stick them on the wall.
They may as well be touch screens mounted up high like that. I don't take them out and just press the buttons I need for whatever. A remote on the wall seems to be way more user freindly for me than my phone.
Two new fans means two more remotes though so it's about to start looking like a 2005 hifi entertainment center with 7 different remotes
