BRS Doser vs Bubble Magus doser

The bubble magus doser would be easier to program IMO. You basically set the amount to dose daily in ml and if you want it dosed hourly or very other hour. Done. With the brs doser you would have to program the digital timer for a set amount of time(in minutes) to achieve the amount you want dosed. And if you wanted it to dose evenly throughout the day you would have to program it for every hour or whatever you want. The digital timers we carry have a max of 8 on/off settings only.
 
And you need two or three timers unless you want the exact same amount dosed of each component and at the same time, which is not good IMO.
 
The BM unit is set programming, it's not all that programmable compared to the unit BM copied for their inferior product. Spend the extra 2 bills and get a GHL. You will not regret it, can't say the same about the BM. Several BAR members in the past reported on the failures of the BM and what it did to their tanks.

A tiny bit of basic math, and a simple measurement of time to dispense 1 cup of liquid, and you can do equal time dosing :)

Disagree. Rocking bm for nearly three years. Very happy

You disagree it happened, or you disagree it can happen, or what? A few extra words will help get your point across a LOT clearer ;)

Talk to the BAR ex-president who had a major tank disaster due to a failing BM
. Its NOT an isolated experience, he wasn't the only BAR member to have one fail on them.

I have not heard a single report on the GHL failing like that ;)
 
So far I'm happy with the 3 pump Proflux doser, no math, just plug in how many ML and how many times you want in a 24hr period.

Plus it's expandable to control up to 8 pumps if you ever wanted to do that.
