Thermostat Controlled Outlets

i wonder how many times it switches on and off in an hour.

That's why I store 4 spare propane tanks in my growroom

That should do the trick

How does one wire something like this up to a plug in ceramic heater? Does this one only do cooling?

I need to make one that does heating as well. Any tips or a link to another guide somewhere would be great!

It is cooling only. Most of those lil heaters already have built in thermostats tho.

Amazon has the Lux LV1 heating thermostat for $11 shipped. The LV3 is the cooling version $17+ shipping.

The LUX win100 is a digital one that can do heating or cooling, $35 shipped. It says 15amps. Some programming features.

Yea, but most of them don't have actual temperature read outs on them, just a goofy ass little dial that has no temperature readings on it. I just looked for the Flowmaster and they don't carry it where I am... What are my other options. I checked out "heating/cooling" thermostats but I wouldn't know how to wire them up to a plug like the one in this thread...

Any other suggestions?

Awesome find man, I just ordered a LUX win100 and got it for free by signing up for a credit card and they give you $40, covered the unit and shipping

I like that it says it is for use with heater and a/c units
