So I was at my local hydro shop checking out co2 controller and the owner told me all cap products are 25% off but warranties won't be honored. Hydrofarm the owners of cap closed cap due to a lack of quality. Sucks little selection= higher prices. Bummer for all of us with cap products we thought were under warranty.

Im sure they got you to buy their product right.
R&M Supply filed for bankruptcy...
Hydrofarm acquired some of R&M Supply's existing product lines. C.A.P was one of those lines.
Simply put, Hydrofarm will handle these "brands" now.. names such as Quantum, Digilux, ValuLine, Maxlume, XXXtreme, etc.. CAP controllers is one of the brands that they acquired and supposedly that line will be undergoing a lot of improvements and relaunched.
I suppose I can understand the acquisition of some lines, but I don't see why they'd want to keep the CAP name alive when it already has so much negative light cast against it. In reality.. it's all the same Chinese crap anyways. I guess they're still trying to capitalize on the existing name recognition.
Hydrofarm seems like they'll be honoring warranties for these product lines that they'll now be selling, but it DOES NOT seem like it's going to apply for those with existing products/purchases.

No I didn't buy anything by cap this trip.if i'm going to spend 400-500 on a fuzzy controller I want a waranty. Besides I found hydrofarms autopilot fuzzy for less than 400.gotta love Amazon.I do have 3 blowers from cap that have been running almost nonstop for 2 years with no problems. But the controller bucket on my old ebb and grow caught on fire after 2 months, so maybe it's for the best cap stops. As far as discount hydro, I don't like shopping their, they call it discount but I have never gotten even a small discount, no thanks, i'll stick with my local guy, and Amazon for the big stuff.
Bye bye cap
