Pool Pilot Digital 220 unit - Warning Low Amps - Cell? and Bad Temp Sense

[PoolDoc]

.
1. Purchase the largest cell that will fit with your system -- a 10,000 hour unit will last 2x as long (in years) if it's used 1/2 as much.

2. Never, ever use BOOST. Use a gallon or two of bleach, instead.

3. Only use your SWCG for NORMAL pool operation -- not for start-up, not for algae, etc. If something's wrong, understand it and fix it manually.

AutoPilot is by no means the worst, but like most 'new and improved' or 'digital' pool equipment, it is often oversold as a complete solution, when in reality it is just a tool with limitations like every other tool. Quite a few people here think the AutoPilot is the best SWCG, but it's still just an SWCG, with all the limitation inherent in the technology.

What SWCG's do well is consistently chlorinate pools that are experiencing normal loads. What they don't do so well, is everything else.
