I'm thinking about going from propane to electric, and I need help. I'm looking around at all of the threads and, to be quite honest, I'm getting overwhelmed - so I'm reaching out for some individualized feedback.
What would be the minimum requirement of hardware to go from propane to electric with my current setup?
Please keep in mind that I'd rather spend an extra $20 than have to move plugs around, so I don't mean that kind of "absolute minimum" requirement...but I also don't have hundreds of bucks to spend. I'd like to keep it simple and move indoors/electric for starters, and over time upgrade my gear to full a full HERMS/RIMS/etc setup with pots and all that jazz...
I know I will need (links provided for reference, other suggestions VERY welcome):
Any thoughts or feedback, or even links to other threads that may have already answered these questions would be greatly appreciated. As I said earlier, I have searched and browsed this forum, but there is a LOT of info here and I'm getting buried in the details before I even know what details I need to get buried in!
