What is everyone using for the hot side of their controller? I've a halogen lamp hooked up now, but wonder if there is a better solution.
I'd be cautious using a halogen bulb, haven't seen one that runs cool enough not to present a fire hazard. I use an old 60watt boot drier and have found that to be sufficient to hold a 9cf freezer to 65 deg in my unheated garage in January. You really don't need much heat, although it stays on longer than a higher power heat source would.
