Is this a variac or a triac controller?

Like Gino said, its neither. It's an SCR. A variac is a variable transformer. A 3 Kw variac would be big and heavy. An SCR just chops the sine wave to control the voltage to the motor. That is hard on true AC motors. It's better to lower their frequency and their voltage at the same time, which is what a motor drive does.

what controller are we talking about. I have installed a lot of MM. Can you be more specific.

These types of devices are a terrible kluge. The only way to properly control the speed of a motor is to use a variable transformer. What you want is the Variac 3 amp made in china. 3 Amp Variac Variable Transformer, 300va Max, 0-130 Volt Output I have two of the 3 amp Variacs, and I also have two of those crap VenTech units just like the one you are asking about. The Variacs allow for much slower fan speeds; but most important is the fact that your cheap kluge outputs a square wave which wastes energy, stresses the motor, and actually causes a significant amount of noise to emanate from the fan itself -- the result of short pulses of square wave forms beating on the motor.

It depends what you mean by speed control. A variac would work fine, but that may not be what you meant.

This controller is a USB application device. Just plug it into your computer and follow the protocols and you should be good to go. The system should recognize it as Oxygen 49 in your multimedia panel.

It is, but it will not give you much adjustment. I tried plugging this into the controller and to start the fan it had to be almost full on into the high range. Adjustment was very minimal, it was basically on or stop, couldn't even back it off to less than half of the high setting before it would just quit. So yes, but if you want very fine-grain control you may be disappointed.

Per the Kohler On Cue software Operation Manual, (Publication # TP6796, dated 9/13) this works with generators: 6VSG, 14/20RES, 14/20RESL, 14/20RESA, 14/20RESAL, 38/48RCL. It works with the following controllers (built into one of the previously listed generators): RDC, DC, RDC2, DC2, VSC. The RDC and DC controllers must also have an Ethernet option board kit, part # GM62465-KP1.

I'd go with the Yn. You can have it host a web page that allows you to control the Arduino's IO. Worse case you can always use it like a basic Arduino. Just make sure you have enough IO for your need.

This is a usbasp programmer. it uses 10 pin for SPI not the normal 6 pin. If using the Arduino IDE select usbasp as the programmer. find reference http://www.sainsmart.com/usb-isp-programmer-for-atmel-avr-51-atmega-attiny.html

Don't know, I'm using it to reprogram electronic speed controllers that use the ATmega328 micro-controllers.

i fell for that controller as well, worked for two days numerous emails with the company, went on amazon again and bought a renogy 30amp controller. sorry you got one from the same china no helpers

Doubtful. Looks like this controller uses a Triac to clip the AC sine wave to control the motor speed. The solid state controller's power supply could get messed up with the clipped sine wave. Personally I wouldn't try it.

Sorry, I dont know, I use it to control a Boss loop station ant it Works great

The unit specs are wrong on the website. The spec sheet on the controller it self calls for 12 volts ac for the power input. But it will run on 12 volts DC. It's just a relay that turns on and off when a certain temp is reached. So a standard 12v fan should work just fine.

It is the 6 station controller. I purchased it to replace a Hunter controller that failed. It is a direct replacement of the older Hunter controller. Make sure you make a drawing of the old wiring to keep the watering zones in order.

My paper work says output is three CMOS for controller. Connecting mode is common anode. Hope this helps.

I have not found anything. Just assume it's a 5V input, and output is inverted (High input = relay OFF)
