Wrong **** voltage aquarium temperature controller -> Pay if forward

[ThreeDogsNE]

My keezer temperature controller was broken, and I bought one of the aquarium temperature controllers on E-bay to replace it. Here's what I bought

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=220715293655&view=all&tid=716792210012

When ordering I did not notice that it is 220v, not 110v, and this site does not ship the correct voltage automatically, as others do. Their return policy does not cover stupidity or intoxication when ordering. It's not worth the hassle/shipping to pursue the return. I put it back in the packaging after about 10 minutes out.

If someone can use it, I'll send it to you, on a pay it forward basis. First come, first served. Post here to end this thread, then PM me with a receiving address.

Not to kill someones freebie, but if you have 220 available, that part is only needed for the electronic control part. You can still switch lower voltages with it since they are not fed through the controller.

That was quick!

Hermit, thanks for the thought, but I don't have 220 anywhere near my keezer. I don't want to screw around with it. It's going to Infection tomorrow.

I dont know if you would want to bother with it but you could get a small transformer to provide 220vac the temp controller shouldnt draw much if its just a digital circuit and small relay, so a cheap transformer should work.
Something like this would be overkill maybe you can get an even cheaper one.

The things are only $15 to begin with. The transformer or a replacement would be the about the same cost, plus shipping, of course. However, I bought an Auber SYL-2342. I don't need two controllers. I'm happy to see someone else put it to use.

I just did the same thing, if someone will pay shipping its yours.
