Review: Great STC-1000 Type Controller - Full Disclosure - I was offered a discount on this product in exchange for an honest review. I purchased a Inkbird All-Purpose Digital Temperature Controller Fahrenheit &Centigrade Thermostat w Sensor 2 Relays back in April and have been very happy with its performance. I wired it into a small project box and hooked up my chest freezer to make a nice effective fermentation chamber. I have since picked up a second chest freezer so I needed something to control the temperature. This device fits the bill perfectly! You will see my make-shift controller box build for this unit in my pictures. This is almost certainly not to code, please do not think that I am suggesting you build your box like this. For what it's worth, it is working just fine on my chest freezer right now. PROs: Price - Great low-cost controller, especially if you already have the parts to wire this up sitting in your garage. Ease of Use - Adding the Fahrenheit display makes this much more user friendly. Effectiveness - Control heating and cooling with one device. CONs: Not Programmable - This is not the V1.0 A400 model STC-1000, you can't flash STC-1000p on this. Not Pre-Wired - If you are not sure how to read a wiring diagram, or you don't have the parts/tools around your house, then you would be better off buying Inkbird Itc-308 Digital Temperature Controller Outlet Thermostat, 2-stage, 1000w, w/ Sensor which does exactly the same thing, but is already wired for you. Additional Notes: This appears to be functionally identical to the earlier STC-1000 that I purchased. You can set the temperature, display unit, the compressor delay, and the calibration offset. The temperature probe is the same plastic-coated probe. The screw terminals and wiring diagram on the back look the same. In 7 months of continuous use my first STC-1000 has not had a single issue, I would guess that this one will be just as great. Inkbird is a great company to deal with and are very friendly to customers, I would say that alone is enough reason to pick this model.
Review: Used for hydroponics! Here's a quick how-to for all you non-electical engineers out there (like me!) - I live in Florida and decided during quarantine that I wanted to try growing peppers and onions in my office closet. I've spent the last 4 weeks buying every hydroponic solution I could, trying to figure out why my plants were always closer to dead than alive. I have a small setup -- a 5 gallon bucket of nutrients and a RDWC setup I got off desertcart (https://amzn.to/3acGSqG). Little did I know, with the Florida heat and my small closet space, a RDWC can actually cook your plants because of the water that sits in the hydroponic system when the pump is not running. I needed a way to cool my nutrients without investing in a 400$ water chiller meant for (much) bigger grow ops. I read all of the reviews on a small water cooler that would help keep my solution temperatures under control (https://amzn.to/2VcaBMg) and saw a review from the control engineer saying I needed to forget about an expensive controller buy a simple 18$ one -- this one! (review is here for reference https://www.desertcart.com/gp/customer-reviews/R3C88YUKT446KA/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B001JSVLBO). Well that was a stupid idea -- that guy knows way more than I do. If you're reading this now and you need a controller, spend an extra 15$ and buy this (https://amzn.to/34EnDVH). However, if you like to get in over your head like me, keep reading. You'll need a few items from your local hardware store -- 1. A 1-1/4" hole saw (https://amzn.to/2xnu5o7). You'll need this to drill a hole in whatever tank is holding your nutrient solution. 2. A generic wall outlet -- something like this (https://amzn.to/3bcOYkd) 3. A 3 prong extension cord, you know, the usual kind (https://amzn.to/2K4ImbZ) 4. If you have an extra computer power plug laying around, that should be fine. Otherwise you can use a lamp cord. I used something like this (https://amzn.to/2K7GLSH) 5. Finally, a place to put it all, nice and neat. I used something like this, but I took my controller to the hardware store and found one that was a snug fit (https://amzn.to/3bdfw56) 6. (optional) an outlet cover, 'cause we're fancy and like aesthetics. Time to put it together! 1. Cut the tail off the computer power cord (or similar) mentioned in the part list -- #4. The tail being the part that does not plug into the wall (the female end, cut it off). Pull the casing back a bit and strip the black (hot wire) and white (neutral). Leave the green alone, cut it so that its just the two black and white wires exposed. Put some electrical tape over it for good measure. 2. Strip the black and white wires and connect them to the controller by first unscrewing the screws in the terminals. Black (hot) goes into port 1 (closest to the left when looking at the back), the white (neutral) goes into port 2. Screw the screws tight to secure the wires. 3. Connect the controller's sensor wire to ports 3 and 4 -- the order does not matter. 4. Plug in the power cable connected to the controller and make sure it powers on. 5. If all is well, it should startup and show you what the ambient temperature is. Disconnect the power cable afterwards. 6. Take your extension cord (part #3) and cut the tail off (female part). Then cut an additional 6-8 inches from that -- we'll need a bit of copper wire for the next steps. Set it aside. 7. Grab the mutilated extension cord -- the one with the male plug remaining. Strip all 3 wires -- white, green, black back a bit. Connect the white wire to the neutral screw (mine was silver). The green wire goes to the green screw. Connect the black wire (hot, power) to the temperature controller, terminal #7. At this point you should have: the power cord (section with the male end) connected to the electrical outlet via the white and green wires. The power cord's black wire should be connected to the controller port #7. 8. Remember that piece we cut off in step #6? Grab that, pull the black wire out of the casing, and strip both ends. Plug one end into the controller terminal #8, and the other side of that wire goes now to the brass screw on the new outlet (the one that has the green and white wires connected). At this point you should have 3 wires connected to the outlet, green and white directly from the extension cord, and black coming from the controller. 9. Make it look pretty! I'll leave this up to you. Make sure to cover any exposed wires with electrical tape. 10. Finally -- you should have three plugs now -- one from the aquarium chiller, one from the extension cord, and one that power the controller. Plug the aquarium chiller plug into the new outlet. Plug the other two cables into a standard wall outlet that has power. 11. Mount the chiller to your bucket, inserting the probe through the hole and tightly securing it with a wrench. Check for leaks! Congratulations, you're a boss. Go out there and grow!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does the display show actual temperature, or just the temperature preset?**
A: Not sure why all of the false answers here.  Yes, it shows the actual temperature - and by setting an option in the menu, it will display it in C or F.  Apparently there are a lot of people who don't know how to use the product they've bought.  Read the user manual linked to on the page.

**Q: Does this controller maintain the settings I program into it, even if the power goes off?  Very important to know.**
A: I've been using this controller for some time now on my keezer and fermentation chamber.  Recently experienced a power outage at my house that lasted over 72hours.  The unit does maintain settings both when manually powered down as well as if power is interrupted from the outlet.  But even better than that, when the power came back the unit retained that it was in the "on" setting and turned back on without needing to be manually turned on.  I have built out a few of these units for my needs as well as for friends.  I love them.

**Q: can I set separate high and low temps to run a heat lamp in winter and cooling fan in the summer?**
A: The answer is yes and no.  Technically, you can run a heat and cooling cycle at the same time.  The trigger temperature can be any temperature.  But, the trigger temperatures for cooling and heating can not be more than 20C (36F) apart.All the information is in the included instructions, but the setting of this unit is not very easy to understand.There are two temperatures to set.  The first one is the middle (or set) temperature.  Nothing is actually triggered at this temperature.The second setting is the difference temperature.  this is a +/- plus and minus temperature.So, if you want the heat to turn on at 15C (59F) and the cooling to turn on at 25C (77F), you need to "set" the temperature at 20C and the program the difference temperature at 5C;  20C +/-5C.  The cooling relay is triggered at 25C.  The heat relay is triggered at 15C.  (Nothing is triggered at 20C)Seems strange, but that's how it works.See how easy?If you are using this for only one trigger, keep the difference setting as low as you can (0.3C?), and then the middle or set temperature becomes the trigger temperature for heat or cool.

**Q: Has anyone extended the sensor leads by another 30'? I am thinking about this to control my outdoor wood stove from inside.**
A: I'm not sure the original thermistor will handle the heat of a wood stove, it is rubber coated. But with that said,with the thermistor at the max on my chart 110*C the resistance is down to 713 ohms. 60 feet of # 22 wire is about 1 ohm, # #24 is about 1.5 ohms, So the temperature error introduced by the extra wire is less than 0.02%.
