    Chiller Thermostat

    I am thinking about maybe keeping my chiller, and seeing if I can get some sort of thermostat that would let me keep the water temp above freezing. I am sick of killing hardware. Is there anything out there that could do that for me..like 10c-20c at all times?
    Thanks

    There are temp controllers on ebay for $10 that do 0c-999c. So that would probobly be ideal. You would want to have it chill to 10c then turn off and turn back on at 20c, but to tell you the truth you should probobly try and make a hold over plate so you dont kill you compressor from all of the on offs.

    First off Thanks for the reply.

    Would you happen to know the name of an exact temp controller to look at?

    Also It has been a long time since I was here, I am pretty sure I forgot/don't know what a hold over plate is.

    Thanks again

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...848111651&rd=1 they are all over ebay. A hold over plate is a resivour that gets frozen then slowly defrosts colling down whatever you want to cool allowing the compressor to be off for longer intervals.
