Hi albinochicken89, that's great to hear you like it, thanks. I think you probably have v1 as v2 was only available mid Nov but both are similar so it doesn't matter. The extension you have will work on new controller so you wouldn't need that, just need to update reef-pi connectors with different pins. The power bars will work as well and you can still run the pca9685 expansion.
So you would need the controller and the two new extensions, this would be equivalent to the controller you have without extensions. The new controller doesn't have any extra ports, I just moved 20 to the 3 RJ45's so they can go to the extensions instead.
Going forward I do have plans to update the old extensions, they will have the same port configuration but sensors will be setup like the new sensor extension.
