AC Infinity Controller 76 (not the Controller 67)

Just wanted to update this thread. I heard back from AC Infinity and they said that, if you set a scheduled on and off time, that it will turn both outlets on and off at the set times. Unfortunately that makes this device either a $48 light timer (they want $14 shipping :sick:), or a $48 temp/humidity controller, but not both. I asked them for clarification, just to make sure, but I don't think this is going to do what I want.

I shiver at the thought of having to programming one of these things... Is this is what you are going for tfc?

Yeah, something like that would do what I want, I was just hoping the AC Infinity piece would do it because the price was nice and I trust their temp/humidity monitoring. I program control systems for a living, and I programmed my own controller for my 4x4, but I was hoping to just find something pre-built for cheap that would do what I want. Especially since the temp/humidity sensor I would need to use for my control system alone runs about $60 used on ebay and retails for $350 new.

Just to clarify, the reason I won't just use any temp/humidity controller is because a lot of them use the same sensor, and that sensor is usually really accurate for temperature but WAY off for humidity.

I'm currently integrating a "Digital Watchman" (pic below) with my controller and it started out as accurate but the RH value started drifting. First it was off by a few points but currently it is reading 18% higher than it should. I had to put offset logic in my code so I can just keep offsetting it as it drifts so my humidity control continues working as it should.
