Ph doser system

I am about to purchase a Milwaukee dosing controller and pump for my hydro system. Has anyone here used this brand? Good? Bad? I need 2 units for 2 30 gal tanks. Bluelabs is just over my budget right now.
 
I used to run large saltwater reef tanks. We used Milwaukee controllers and dosing pumps to control PH. I know its a different application but its doing the same thing. Personally I liked APEX controllers and dosing pumps better. Higher quality but it comes with a higher price.
 
That Apex does look awesome. Wow. Probably be worth it for a bigger grow tho. Budget little thin after finishing room. I'm trying to convince myself to go bluelab but Milwaukee is half the price.
 
The apex system can control just about your whole grow. Lights, ph, dose just about anything. Can tell you if water leaks on the floor. Auto top off. Controls fans by use of temp sensors. Theres outlets you can add to the system that you can set up to operate off the system. On off as needed. Like turning your pump on and off if it gets too hot in the reservoir. Pretty cool stuff. Its made for reef tanks but would kick ass with a hydro system.
I am not affiliated with APEX in any way. Just passionate about my new and previous hobbies.
 
I use Blue Lab cause I didn't know there were alternatives. Wish I woulda known about the Milwaukee before I spent the $$$ for the Blue Lab.
