That's what I just bought, I'm in week three of my back order right now so it should be here this week (I hope).
Are you running the room you want to control right now?
If so you probably have a good idea what you need to run for pieces of equipment. So just make sure what you buy has what you need and you should be OK.

I personally like the CAP (it is huge though, and I wish it had a remote sensor like the harvest master). But it has everything I needed and at the lowest price. 599.99 free shipping. Tight.

What are you planning on using it for? I am planning on putting it in a small tent and hope it can run efficiently. Let us know, there is like three threads on this board and none of them have any information on any controller. Peace JR

Man this was on back order for 3 weeks and then a few days to get to me

If you don't know it's a CAP xgc 1e
complete environmental controller with fuzz logic to control the Co2

$599.99 free shipping

I can't wait to get in the room and hook it all up
I hope to make it pretty maintenance free after I get it dialed in, just in time for me to go back to work. Any questions please ask. There is not a ;lot of info out there on this product first hand use wise. So fire away......JR

i dreamed of getting one of these for the last 6 years.

I can't believe no one else is pumped! I will post some pics of it all hooked up, I still need to make a few custom lenght cords and clean up the spaghetti factory I have going on right now.

It seriously only took about 20 minutes to setup, I am truly impressed with the quality and ease of use of this product. I only have a few more tweaks and it should be good to go. With the A/c unit i have It chills the room to 69.8 F and lets it warm up to 81.7 F

Do you guys think that is a little extreme of a temperature swing?

The Co2 is great. It kept the CO2 right at the 1200 ppm mark. I didn't want to crank it open right away, so I will see what my usage is. I hope it's not alot, after all I am running a sealed off room.

I will post more pics tonight....JR
