I've spoken with Neptune, so first about my review of the Apex and some updated information. I was under the impression from some media and reports that I read, that you could not use the Apex classic energybar with the new Apex. I was wrong, the Apex classic energybar is compatible with the new Apex. You can connect your old energy bar via aquabus to the new Apex and it should sync up fine. What you cannot do, is use the new energybar 832 with the old Apex Classic. If you purchase just an energybar 832 and connect it to your Apex classic, it will not work. Neptune Systems will continue to sell the energybar classic as it allows aquarists to save money (roughly 80 bucks) if they have items they want Apex controlled, but aren't interested in having power monitoring on.Do you think if New e-bar will be backward compatible with old systems?
