    Sure, as long as you connect it accordingly. I'll be using it with my Aquaero aswell.

    No, I live in the Netherlands and Swissflow is also located in the Netherlands, I just got it straight from them. I have seen other people here on BT though which have one aswell and live in the states.

    minor update

    I didn't like the silver face that came with the Aquaero so I modifed a bay cover instead. Sorry for

    the image quality and I was too lazy to stop and take step by step picture.

    I contacted them and they sent me a powerpoint on the flowmeter but didn't mention how I can purchase one.

    Here is my first fan grill. I got the idea from one of the project log at Bit-tech.net




    Got this cool kit from Costco.

    Took me awhile to design this.

    Got this huge 4 1/2 hole saw off Ebay for $10, much cheaper than Home Depot.

    C'mon, please tell me EXACTLY how you made this cut

    I was thinking about doing just the same, and now that I see how perfect it can become, I believe I have to get me an Aquaero myself.

    I guess he just took off the front plate of the Aquaero and used it as a template to draw the design on that coverplate, then using a drill for the buttonholes and a dremel for the lcd cutout.

    I used the original face plate as a measurement and I print out another template with the same software that I used to make my fan grill. The software I use for the drawing is called Smartdraw. You can also use the original and draw it on a piece of paper. Make sure you make the window smaller than the original because the LCD display is not that big.

    It appears Swifttech is bringing back the Storm block with a ver 2. Couple months ago, they were being replace by the Apogee block and there was much debate on the Apogee block vs. the Storm block.
