Very interested in your feedback. Waffling between these and the Aiper Scuba S1 Pro or Aiper Scuba X1. Still cold where I live, so I have a little time to make a decision. Excited to see your impressions.

Can you elaborate on what was changed between the previous S1 Pro and the 2025 S1 Pro for filter design? I just started learning about the Aiper offerings last week. I read through this thread last week but don't recall anything about the filter design mentioned for the Pro.

In reading the S1 thread, it sounded like at first, everyone thought the S1/N1 were the same thing, and then as time went on, some were questioning if they were the same. When you look at them on the aiper website, it looks like they're at least physically slightly different (look at the angles...

Any more thoughts 2 weeks later?

Wow, that's quite a thread. Went down that rabbit hole for quite a while. Basically, the S1/N1 is at a price point where it's nearly disposable if it makes it 3 years. It sometimes struggles with ramps (which we have as our pool goes from 3' to 8'). Software updates have been making things...

Our Dolphin Quantum is losing steam. I'm tired of finding it tied in knots after it's been stuck spinning on the drain, I'm tired of the rubber polaris drain covers that break down over the year, and I'm tired of the cord that has the degrading rubber. I'd *like* to go cordless, but that's why...

This is listed on the datasheet for that relay - would I be incorrect to assume that these specs are for when the coil is energized?

OK, so in other words, add something like a RIB double throw relay, the J2 will tell the external relay to close, and the external relay will switch both fireman switches independently at the same time. I'm guessing that depending on the relay, a person could use the 24v coming off of the...

So are they saying to route this wire into the high voltage area of the box, and use those relays to activate it, or is there a better way to do this? I was also thinking that since one of the sides of the fireman's switch is effectively going to have voltage (aka, be "hot"), only one...

So I was reading the installation manual on the ETI 400 heater, and it states that you can install multiple heaters in parallel: The question that I have is about control via the IntelliCenter. It doesn't look like the ETI 400 heater has an RS485 connection, so it would have to be the...

@MyAZPool - I know this is an old thread, but I'm looking to have an intellicenter further away from the equipment - equipment is at the rear of the yard, and we don't have a great location to mount the load center (and don't want to built a wall out there to mount it to). There's 3 valves, a...
