<p>I've used the inexpensive Inkbird PIDs and they work really
well. Very easy to set up and they maintain a good temperature
band. I'd recommend against a simple thermostat in case you want
to try using this at other temperatures in the future and also
because of likely overshoot with just a thermostatic switch.<br>

<pre wrap="">Wow, that's incredible. I was thinking of something insanely simple, like this:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://ebay.to/2MCpgtw" moz-do-not-send="true">https://ebay.to/2MCpgtw</a>
but for even less $$ I can get a digital PID controller? That's crazy.
Someone who knows more than I do about these: Does the simple thermostat above
just switch (on/off) the connection to the two prongs on the back?
The nice one below obvious includes derivative control to avoid overshoot.
More tech than I really needed, but man I had no idea these were affordable.
Thanks

I've got a line on a free Whirlpool model RBS305PDQ4 oven. The electronic
panel on the front doesn't work (turns on, but intermittent control of the
touch controls). I searched the usual repair parts places, and the consistent
answer is "this part is no longer produced, unavailable - buy a new oven".
As this is for powder-coating, all I really want to do is heat it up to 350
deg. Can I hot-wire this with a on-off switch and some kind of basic
thermostat? Any ideas? thanks Lee
