Wondering if anyone has put this on a 220V unit. I'd buy the Black Box if I could get one in 220 for use in Europe...
Yes, Alpha is in Sweden, this was developed on a 220 unit.

Oh yeah, and a small bonus as well, I know Will has put together an excellent spreadsheet for visualizing profiles, but sadly I never got it working in Libre Office. So, I have built a simple webpage (it is under the 'profile' folder).
Hi guys!
With this, I'm feeling pretty good about v1.06, I'll leave it in the work branch a little while and if I don't hear any complaints in a reasonable amount of time, I'll pull it to the master branch and make a release

Thanks, I actually was looking at it, and I suspected it was single stage.
No sweat... I figured it was a long shot anyway.
Now They're free, so I'll just use them for something else... If they do a decent job, I'll use one for my kegerator
Clearly... Because the title, "Digital STC-1000 All-Purpose Temperature Controller Thermostat With Sensor 110V" and the description, "heating and cooling control" and the fact that I emailed and got confirmation from the buyer it was a legitimate stc1000, was VERY clear that it WASN'T an stc1000. Regardless of the photo, the description and response I got from the seller was not what I received.
So I have no qualm keeping these and screwing him over. Thanks.
Is there a reason why nobody hasn't just developed a shield with terminal blocks relays and a screen on it? Seems like since we have to purchase an arduino to flash anyways we could just work off of the arduino.
(I'm not belittling what alpha has done at all. It's phenomenal work. Just a lot of risk in getting an sic that actually works. )

Look up brewpi.
Well brewpis also require a pi. Sounds like alpha may have done some work to make that fact not true, but it just seems like there is a lot of wasted money on stc controllers that won't work. Screens and led displays are cheap.

The STC is very compact, comes in a complete ready-to-use package, tried and true hardware, cheap. It has a lot going for it as I see it.
By all means do. Elco and mdma have done great work on brewpi.
It is a matter of preference. If you want graphs, have money to spend go brewpi. If you like a compact, autonomous and cheap controller then look at stc-1000/stc-1000+.
Quite frankly it is getting boring have to justify stc-1000+ against brew pi. I started stc-1000+ because I was pretty happy with stc-1000. I just wanted profiles (which brewpi had running on the pi anyway).
If you prefer brewpi over stc-1000+, then good for you.
Will sells controllers on blackboxbrew.com. Flashed or unflashed, no need to waste money.
I never meant to offend.

And you didn't.

What's the latest on confirmed dealers selling the 1.0 version? I bought my stc-1000 (before this project was around) off ebay, but it's a 1.1 version. I'd like to pick up a 1.0 and give this a shot.

9 posts above yours. There are no "confirmed" ebay or amazon sellers.
I'd like to take the more frugal approach (blackboxbrew is sold out anyway). Assuming I can get my hands on a v1.0 unit, I'll be good to go. Was just wondering if there has been consistent luck with a specific amazon or ebay seller (or some other source for the stc-1000 unit only).

The assembled controllers are out of stock but it looks like the flashed and unflashed stc-1000's are available. You can be frugal ordering from china, but you are taking a risk with any seller. None of them are consistent.
Correct, I still have plenty of the flashed/flashable controllers available. Thanks.
