I first posted this in the DIY; oversight on my part that there's a dedicated section for automating. May I get a little more additional help per the following:

Ok, so I'm very pleased with how my heat exchanger coil within my HLT turned out. I'm just not sure where to go with the controller system. It will be a propane setup, plan on continuously pumping and I would like for the temp probe to be inline on the return to the mash tun, unless others have found mash tun exit to be better. I need the controller, igniter, solenoid, probe with well and what every else I've missed within the system. Does any one have a bill of material build for a setup as described? Willing to spend a few hundred, maybe 200 to 300 range, maybe a little more; I just can't spring for some like the Tower Of Power.

THANKS YOU VERY MUCH in advance, I'm really lost where to go!!!

Posted some incorrect info. Let me find what you need!
Other than that your plans (and budget) are sound.
