EDIT: not wanting to do multiple posts i've edited all my posts to provide updating info. (or erased content)
so i picked up a free kenmore coldpoint side by side fridge for free off craigslist.
the problem is that using a typical temp controller like an inkbird, stc1000, etc. shutting off the "Cold" means shutting down the whole unit. fridge and freezer. but since i want to keep a small yeast bank in the freezer, as well as hops and other crap, i'd prefer to keep it running.
so here's what i did- removed ice maker, removed the ducting that feeds freezer air directly into the damper control. removed the damper mechanism (and threw it away by accident!!) and mounted a fan to be controlled by inkbird.
