Cheap basic setup

[JeffBham]

P-J,
You rock! I stole your idea and electrified my HLT (sans the timer). Thank you so much for the drawings, parts list, technical questions etc. etc. By electrifying the HLT it has cut my active brew day down to 4 hours (and I think that I can cut it even further as I get more efficient). Again, a huge THANK YOU!!!!!

As mentioned previously, I electrified my HLT and it is still working great! The only problem is that I now would like to go all electric so that I can move everything inside (toting the BK outside to the burner kinda sucks). That being the case, should I:
1.Wire a selector switch between the spa panel and the control panel? or
2. Run a second "circuit" off of the existing breaker in the spa panel (bad idea I'm pretty sure)? or
3. Buy another GFCI breaker for the extra spot in the spa panel? or
4. Other...?
I think 1 is the answer but does a selector switch mess up the GFCI? and Is there any way to power both PIDs at the same time? and How would you accomplish tying in the selector switch?
