    The full Profilux III will cost $599, which includes:

    • USB
    • RS232
    • LAN with built in webserver

    The Profilux III EX will run an additional $100, for $699 total. Like the II and II EX differences, the III EX includes all the above listed items plus:

    • An additional Level
    • Redox
    • Conductivity (salinity)

    For owners looking to upgrade to the full Profilux III EX, first an EX kit must be added upgrading the model to the II EX. From there the III upgrade kit can be added for the full III EX features. Rumor has it a separate color touch screen will be an available option, more on this when its released.

      Awesome news… now where is my wallet…

      Best new addition to the GHL is the built-in webserver – it is really going to make connectivity much easier for everybody.

      I guess that’s good news for me, Profilux are just about the only controller we can buy here in Australia and I’ve been looking at the II EX for a while now..

      GHL ProfiLux North America has seen this year so far nearly a 50% increase in product sales, mostly born from clients looking again at German products for proven reliability as well as advanced functionality, the biggest client feedback comment is that they want a “proven” system they can trust their reef system with.

      We have also weathered the storm in respect to the sub $500 controller market and are swiftly seeing an emerging separated market from the competition in the USA, again, as clients seek German built products as the global economy starts to pick up. Clients are also looking more now at the product itself and what it can do, instead of looking at the price ticket, having said that GHL will always be priced as low as physically possible so everyone has access to what we believe and also existing clients believe to be a superior product. Comments on forums such as RC that the ProfiLux is the most wished for controller are very positive comments.

      With the launch of the ProfiLux III the market separation will be more clear. GHL have no great interest in trying to compete with USA constructed products but instead forging their own market arena and continuing to offer advanced developments faster with a focus wholly on reliability within the global market of controllers as a whole. The recent launch of the PumpController-1 for controlling Hydor Koralia pumps is a big example of how GHL will lead the market forward in bringing out products that no other controller has yet to achieve, and more importantly products that people actually need for their systems.

      We will provide Glassbox Design very soon with more big developments on what the PIII will be capable of including the powerful onboard web server.
