I searched the Automated and Electric subforums and only found one thread that mentions Red Lion parts, and was not this one. So I figured I'd ask:
Has anyone used this for a temp controller in either refrigeration control for fermenting or for heating element control in brewing?
http://www.alliedelec.com/search/productdetail.aspx?SKU=70031233
My concern is that I'm misunderstanding the product, since it's not even $20.00. Is this actually a temperature controller or is it a snake about to bite me?
If it IS actually what I think it is, looks pretty cool. Supports slave control output... a ton of different TC types...blah blah blah. I'd probalby still need some relays to directly carry the current of the heating element that would be controlled by this thing's output.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
