I am very pleased with the performance of this Digital Temperature Controller. In fact I bought two of them. I have used it to control the temperature of Kombucha, Spirulina, and several other items. It can control 1200 watts at 110 Volts. That means you can plug a standard chest freezer or refrigerator into the device and control its temperature to be something other than normal appliance operating temps. I have also used this to sound an alarm when cooking temperatures get to a specific number. Works great when trying to optimize Sulforaphane in broccoli!After you get used to setting the unit, it becomes easy to do. Just hold the set button for 3 seconds to get into the programming mode. Then scroll through the options. When done, hold the set button for another 3 seconds to lock in the program. No need to scroll through all the options. The main function you might use would be the TS which is Temperature set value. HD and CD which is how many degrees difference you want to allow between the set value and the actual value. (Usually only a degree or two)You will also want to set AH and AL which will activate an alarm if your temperature gets too high or low. There is a helpful indicator light that will show you if the unit is in heating or cooling mode. When in heating mode the unit will apply current to the 120 V “heat connectorâ€. When in cooling mode the “Cooling†connector will be energized. The connectors are standard 120 V receptacles.My experience is, this unit is very reliable and keeps the temperature of your project very close to the temperature you set. I would not hesitate to buy it again or recommend it to a friend. In fact, I did recommend it to a friend. He wanted an alarm to sound when his deep freezer fails to keep his frozen items at the desired temperature! Works great for him, he loves it too!I have no conflict of interest in writing this review. I am just a happy customer and I am happy to report that I was able to resolve a minor issue with the seller and found them to be very supportive and professional.

After having done some careful research, I bought two of these devices here on Amazon for use in controlling the heaters in a smallish insulated outdoor building (an Amish barn style shed used as a workshop). They both work great in the intended application, and, best of all, setup is easy, straightforward and quick; you only need to spend about two minutes reading the instruction manual before becoming a pro in configuring the various settings that you might wish to tinker with.And now, a few notes about the device, some of which are in response to comments made here by other reviewers:Setup of the device is easy once you have spent two minutes reading the instructions. However, as is true of the vast majority of instruction/user manuals that accompany devices such as this that are made in China, the printed instruction/user manual provided with the device is nearly useless, due to the fact that it is so small in size and consequently the print font is very tiny and difficult to read. So, I did not even bother to try deciphering the nearly-impossible to read user manual that came with the device, and rather, I went online and found the InkBird website, at http://ink-bird.com, and then quickly located the downloadable manual for this device in PDF file format, at http://ink-bird.com/asset/file/ITC-308%20V2.1%20EN.pdf , downloaded it, and printed the three most important pages to me out of the six pages in the manual.The cord on the remote temperature sensor is a bit over 6 feet long; I provide this information because others have asked about the length of the cord on the temperature probe.Although one or two other reviewers have stated that they feel that the temperature display of this device reads about 1 degree C too high (compared to reliable & accurate thermometers), this has not been my experience. I have found the temperature calibration of this device to be very accurate; it is totally in agreement with my other digital thermometers.Please be aware that while the ambient temperature display shows temperature in 0.1 degree (F or C) increments, as does the Set/Target Temperature display, the Set (i.e., target) temperature can only be set in one degree integer increments. So, you can select a Set temperature of 90.0 degrees, or 91.0 degrees, but you cannot select a Set temperature of 90.4 degrees.These units work great, the displays and thermostatic function are very accurate, and the units are very reliable. I would buy more for other applications in a second if any such need arose.

So far this device has done nothing but impress. It's an all in one, simple solution providing control of cooling and heating. I am currently using this device to control a re-purposed refrigerator that is being used to house a beer fermenting tank.Even though the refrigerator/freezer is set at it's warmest setting it still get's too cold for fermenting so the "cool" output of the controller is used to turn the refrigerator off/on. If the night time ambient temperature causes the fermenting tank temperature to drop below the low fermentation set point the "heat" output of the controller turns on a small heat source under the fermentation tank to raise the temperature to the set point. The controllers temperature probe is placed in a thermo-well inside the fermenting wort.The device is simple to set and so far is working well. It has calibration offset setting, compressor delay and differential function. It displays in Centigrade or Fahrenheit. All in all it's a great controller for the price. This could also be used to control a pump on a recirculating wort chiller, turning off the pump once the wort has been chilled to the required temperature.

This temperature controller is a game-changer! It’s easy to set up and works perfectly for controlling temperature in my reptile tank. The dual heating and cooling modes are perfect for controlling both ends of the spectrum. It’s reliable and has helped me maintain precise temperature control. Highly recommend this product for anyone needing temperature regulation!

Excelente, necesitas un control de temperatura fácil de usar? Este es. Yo lo uso para home brewing y funciona de maravilla, fácil de programar, el termómetro es largo y lo puedes meter a la olla de agua caliente, muy útil para mashing. Puedes conectar fuentes de frÃo y calor al mismo tiempo asà que es muy bueno para controlar la temperatura de fermentado (pienso comprar otro para eso). Amazon prime excelente con un pago extrañen llego al dÃa siguiente. Muy satisfecho con la compra.

I've been on the hunt for a simple IFTTT controllable 10A outlet with a built-in temperature sensor, that is able to send threshold alarms and enable / disable the outlet.I have not found a solution for anywhere near the price of this unit.Simple and easy to use, take a look on YouTube for a video example: it will take you 2-3 minutes to set this up to do whatever it is you need.In my case, I built a highly insulated shed that needs a 500W heater turned on 1-4 times per day (based on the outdoor temperature / overall heatloss!) for 1 hour to keep the contents above 8°C. This little unit works perfectly!The unit did need temperature calibration out of the box, it was reading exactly 1.0°C high, but the unit allows easy compensation to read accurately. The thermocouple does have quite a bit of thermal mass bonded to it, in my use case that's fine: I want the mass of the sensor to lag the actual air temperature by a few seconds / minutes to help average out the indoor space temp.Overall 10/10: perfect little heating controller for light loads; I would not personally run a heating load all the way up to 10A on this unit, it just doesn't have the mass to support such a claim. I'm sure it can _technically_ do 10A for short periods, but to prevent any risks or issues, I'd absolutely keep the load under 6-7A resistive loads max. If you're trying to run a (not remotely rated for!) 120VAC 1.5kW heater on this thing: you're going to melt it for sure.

Me ha servido mucho para controlar la temperatura de la fermentación de cerveza. Además, aunque siempre lo cuido, ha soportado agua, polvo y sol del exterior.

Works fantastic. Use it in my chicken coop for the heater.
