Where are you grabbing your interposing relays from? Everything on line appears to be part of a card frame or larger assembly. Thanks for the info.. definitely drop one in and save myself from a $25 loss.

Thanks for the picture! Looks like it could be a little awkward, but I'll just bend gently and hope for the best :)

That's kind of what I was wondering..since I only need cooling, that one looks fine, as long as the freezer is under 5A. The STC-1000 would still work for cooling though If I didn't hook up to the heating side, correct?
