Hey, finalising some parts of my next big build, which is going to be my first WC setup and was thinking I would like to view my water temp for no important reason.
I have planned to use a fan controller (http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=408&products_id=8744)which keeps an eye on temps of the air, but would also like a seperate LCD screen to show the temp of the water via a stop fitting temp probe (http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=207_160_298&products_id=11737)in the reservoir (http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=207_160_299&products_id=8509).
I have trudged through many websites trying to find a solution, but most small LCD screens have fixed wired temp probes rather than the two-pin header style that I need.
The closest to what I want that I have found is this (http://www.frozencpu.com/products/5394/tmp-36/Thermal-Star_Illuminated_Thermometer_-_Green_Light.html?tl=c137s294b107#blank), but once again it looks like the probe is hardwired in (I could be wrong, but have found no evidence to say otherwise)
So does anyone know of a product that can monitor the temp with a 2-pin header so I can plug my bitspower probe in?
Or does anyone know how I can make one (I have limited knowledge of electronics/that style of modding)
