Hello!
I am wonderning if there is any timers that would allow me to control 4 outlets seperately...
Example:
fans go on at 5:55AM
actinics go on at 6:00AM
daylights go on at 7:00AM
moonlights go on at 6:55PM
Any ideas??
Two options,
Option 1:
Buy multiple timers (Cheapest Option)
Option 2:
Look for something like this

I don't know of anything else off the top of my head.
you could look into the reefkeeper system ,, rays Carry's them
The GHL Profilux II Light would allow you to control 4 outlets as per your description + can shut off your lights if the temp goes to high. This option if preferable for the additional control features that are available on the GHL.
As for the timer option outlined by Jetjumper, crappy tire has some nice digital timers that can be controlled with a remote. These timers are about $25 each and the remote is another $10, so you are looking at a total of about $110 which is just under half the price of the GHL Profilux II Light.
The nice side to this option is obviosuly the remote to control you lighting.
And lets face it, every tank should have a remote to control something :)

117$ is just for the controller or the controller includes the 4 outlet timer?
Here is what they comes with:
1 x Head unit
1 x PC4 (4 outlets)
1 x temperature probe
1 x PC connection
There are timers available with 2 separately controlled outlets from Rona ~20$.
They are mentioned in this thread:
