I bought this for my 120RR along with the Finnex controller. Looks great in the sump and works perfectly. Highly recommended!

800W Heaters By Jason on 9/30/12
Jason wouldn't recommend this product to a friend
I've bought a total of 3 800W heaters over the years. The first one lasted about 6 months before it just stopped working. I then bought two more just in case one crapped out again. Within a couple of months another one stopped working. The third one has been currently working for the last year or so with no issues yet. Overall I'm not to impressed with the 800W heaters, they are cheap so buy at your own risk.

Not very happy By John on 12/31/11
John wouldn't recommend this product to a friend
it worked good for 1 month. It was controlled b the finnex controler. It was a 800w that I used to replace 2 300 watt marineland heaters. Lucky I kept them or I would have had a frozen tank. I sent it back to finnex and they said they are shipping me a new one but at the cost of shipping it to them and if they send it back with me having to pay return shipping will put it at about 20 bucks in shipping almost 1/2 the cost of just buying a new heater and not having to wait 2-3 weeks for shipping times. I really think they should not make the end user pay shipping if they beleve in there product. I will give the replacement a shot but doubt I ever perchase another finnex heater.

Product Does not last By Dru on 12/1/11
Dru would recommend this product to a friend
As others have mention this product simply will not last. Mine only lasted 2 months and I thought it might just be me, then a friend had purchased one and his only lasted a couple months.
Worse than the product not lasting is there CUSTOMER SUPPORT. It is dreadful. Trying to get this replaced is a huge pain then to top it off you have to pay shipping both ways. They have to receive the heater determine what they want to do then send one back hopefully. Suggested time to get the heater back 30 days. The guy actually told me I should go ahead and buy another heater in the mean time. How the heck is that service??

I have this hooked up to a Reefkeeer light and my temp has not deviated more than .5 degrees. I have the 500 watt and this keeps a 150 gallon in a cool basement at the proper temp.

Solid Heater By tommyboynj on 9/18/11
tommyboynj would recommend this product to a friend
I have this heater hooked up to my reefkeeper lite. NOTE THAT THIS HEATER DOES NOT HAVE A THERMOSTAT. You will need to hook it up to your controller with a temp prob or have a seperate thermostat. I have the 300 watt model in the sump of my 75 gallon tank. It has no problem keep temperature stable and works well with the rkl. I would recommend this productto other looking for a solid primary heater.

Carsten would recommend this product to a friend
I run two of these in my system throuhg a controller and am very pleased with the sturdyness. I just got the second as a backup as I keep hearing about failures but I can not say that I experienced that at all so far.
