Anyone have one yet? Just wondering what the difference is from the controller that came with the EKO.

I got one of the new controllers about a week or so ago, my old controller was starting to go so I thought I would up-grade. edw is right it looks just like those in that link in fact it say coal-trol right on the face, there is an extra alum. plate so it fits better into the existing opening for my EKO. Althought it doesn't seem to fit all the way in might be a little too deep or I have a few too many wires in there? I don't know if it is the exact same as the coal-trol or just using the body of those units???
Seems to have all the features of the RK2001 plus a few extra. Not currently using these features but it will controll a draft inducer, door switch to turn on inducer, you can run an inducer and your main fan. They still need to work on a manual, I got some hand written sheets on instalation. There was some missing info on the these sheets but a phone call to Mark at AHONA cleared these up. Having a problem hooking up my RIB relay (that controlls my backup boiler) but we (Mark and I) are working on this. Their claim is that this controller is more rugged and will last longer. Lets hope so my first one didn't last that long (just long enough to get out of warranty) and this controller is a whole bunch more $$.
