    Default Rose BTA is doing great Armando

    Kevin, usually when they move around a lot, it means they aren't happy. I found that when mine did, it was from 24VDC that was charging up my water. But I've heard there are many other factors that will lead to them roaming.

    clamm, I have a temp probe that runs on 24 volts DC. It was cracked and was "leaking" the voltage into my tank. I fixed the probe, and the BTA stayed put again. That's what I was trying to say.
