AC Infinity Controller 79 Smart Outlet Controller – Wall-Mount Climate Control with WiFi, Bluetooth, Temperature, Humidity & VPD

The AC Infinity Controller 79 Smart Outlet Controller is an advanced 2-outlet environmental controller that automates standard outlet-powered equipment in grow tents, hydroponic systems, indoor gardens, greenhouses, propagation areas, HVAC installations, and other controlled environments.

With two independently programmable outlets, the Controller 79 lets compatible equipment turn ON or OFF based on temperature, humidity, VPD, timers, cycles, schedules, and custom buffer settings. Its included 12' climate sensor probe continuously monitors environmental conditions while the large backlit LCD provides clear real-time readings.

With built-in WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, the Controller 79 connects to the AC Infinity app for remote monitoring, advanced programming, notifications, historical climate charts, and data export. The two outlets collectively support compatible equipment up to 1100 W / 10 A, making the controller a versatile solution for automating fans, humidifiers, heaters, heat mats, and other standard plug-in devices.

Two Independently Programmable Outlets

The Controller 79 features two AC power outlets that can be programmed independently, allowing each connected device to operate according to its own environmental or time-based settings.

For example:

Outlet 1 – Exhaust Fan
Can automatically activate when temperature or humidity exceeds a programmed threshold.

Outlet 2 – Humidifier or Heater
Can operate according to its own humidity, temperature, VPD, cycle, or schedule program.

This independent outlet control allows growers to coordinate different environmental functions from one centralized controller.

Temperature-Based Automation

The included climate sensor continuously measures ambient temperature, allowing the Controller 79 to automatically switch compatible equipment on or off based on programmed temperature thresholds.

This makes it ideal for automating:

• Inline duct fans
• Exhaust fans
• Intake fans
• Circulation fans
• Heaters
• Seedling heat mats
• Other temperature-controlled equipment

The programmable temperature range extends from approximately 32 to 140°F, providing flexibility for many indoor environmental-control applications.

Humidity-Based Automation

The Controller 79 also continuously monitors relative humidity.

Users can create high- or low-humidity triggers that activate connected equipment whenever moisture levels move outside the desired range.

Compatible applications can include:

• Humidifiers
• Exhaust fans
• Ventilation systems
• Circulation equipment
• Other humidity-responsive devices

Real-time humidity automation helps reduce the need for repeated manual adjustments.

VPD Monitoring & Control

The current Controller 79 supports VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) monitoring and trigger programming.

Using temperature and humidity readings from the included climate sensor, the controller calculates VPD and allows equipment to respond to programmed VPD conditions.

This gives growers another environmental parameter for managing connected equipment beyond temperature and relative humidity alone.

Custom Buffer Settings

Custom buffer settings let users fine-tune how connected equipment responds around programmed environmental thresholds.

For example, instead of repeatedly switching a fan ON and OFF for small temperature changes, a buffer creates a controlled range around the trigger point.

This can help:

• Reduce rapid equipment cycling
• Create smoother environmental control
• Improve automation stability
• Customize equipment response

Timer Programming

The Controller 79 includes timer-based programming for equipment that needs to operate for a predetermined amount of time.

This mode can be useful for:

• Ventilation equipment
• Humidifiers
• Heating devices
• Propagation equipment
• Other timed appliances

Timer control provides additional flexibility beyond environmental triggers.

Cycle Mode

Cycle Mode automatically repeats programmed ON and OFF periods.

For example, connected equipment can operate for a selected duration, switch off for another programmed period, and then automatically repeat the sequence.

Cycle programming is useful for equipment that requires intermittent operation rather than continuous running.

Schedule Mode

The Controller 79 also supports scheduled operation, allowing equipment to activate and deactivate at predetermined times.

Schedules can be coordinated with:

• Lighting cycles
• Day/night periods
• Ventilation routines
• Heating schedules
• Humidification periods
• Seedling and propagation programs

This allows users to combine environmental automation with precise time-based control.

WiFi & Bluetooth Connectivity

The Controller 79 provides both WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity for integration with the AC Infinity app.

Bluetooth allows convenient local control, while WiFi provides remote access when the controller is connected to a compatible wireless network.

This lets you check environmental conditions and adjust controller programming without being physically beside the grow area.

AC Infinity App Control

Connecting the Controller 79 to the AC Infinity app provides access to advanced smart-control functions.

Through the app, users can:

• Monitor temperature
• Monitor humidity
• Monitor VPD
• Adjust outlet programming
• Create environmental triggers
• Configure timers
• Create ON/OFF cycles
• Program schedules
• Set notifications
• Review historical climate data
• View climate charts
• Export environmental data in CSV format

The app provides a centralized interface for managing both connected devices and environmental conditions.

Smart Alerts & Notifications

Users can configure custom notifications in the AC Infinity app to increase awareness when environmental conditions change.

Alerts can help users identify conditions outside programmed temperature, humidity, or VPD ranges.

This remote monitoring capability is especially useful for grow tents and controlled environments that cannot be checked continuously in person.

Historical Climate Tracking

The Controller 79 records environmental data that you can review in the AC Infinity app.

Historical charts can help track changes in:

• Temperature
• Relative humidity
• VPD
• Environmental patterns
• Equipment activation

Users can also export climate information in CSV format for additional analysis or record-keeping.

Large Backlit LCD Display

A large backlit LCD display provides easy access to environmental measurements and controller settings.

The display shows important information such as:

• Temperature
• Relative humidity
• VPD
• Outlet status
• Programming mode
• Timers and schedules

You can display temperature in either Fahrenheit or Celsius.

Wall-Mount Design

Unlike the desktop-style Controller 75, the Controller 79 uses a wall-hang design, making it especially convenient for grow rooms, tents, equipment walls, and other installations where you prefer to keep the controller off work surfaces.

Its compact wall-mounted housing keeps environmental readings easy to view while helping maintain an organized equipment setup.

Long 12' Climate Sensor Probe

The included climate sensor features a 144" (12') cable, allowing you to place the sensing point inside the grow tent or controlled environment while the Controller 79 stays conveniently mounted nearby.

The long sensor cable provides flexibility for:

• Grow tent installations
• Greenhouses
• Propagation rooms
• Equipment cabinets
• HVAC applications
• Other controlled spaces

Proper sensor placement helps ensure that temperature, humidity, and VPD readings accurately represent conditions around the growing area.

Supports Up to 1100 W

The two outlets collectively support compatible equipment up to 1100 W, with a maximum current rating of 10 A.

This provides enough capacity for many common environmental devices.

Always verify the electrical requirements of connected equipment and ensure the combined load of both outlets does not exceed 1100 W / 10 A.

Compatible with Standard AC-Powered Devices

One major advantage of the Controller 79 is its ability to automate equipment that uses a standard AC power plug.

Compatible applications can include:

• Inline duct fans
• Exhaust fans
• Shutter fans
• Clip-on fans
• Humidifiers
• Heaters
• Seedling heat mats
• Propagation equipment
• Ventilation systems
• Other compatible outlet-powered appliances

This makes the Controller 79 especially useful for equipment without built-in smart or UIS controls.
