  • @tryodiyguy this seems like it would work well for a incubator

  • @Fapfapfa I will take your word on it. Lol... I have no clue how an incubator even works.

  • What controller did you use, 110v or 220v? I'm also a home brewer I just ordered 110v off of eBay, hope its the right one

  • @Hankflo51 I used the 110v because that is what my chest freezer runs off of. It just depends on your application.

  • Thank you for this video, I am trying to build a controller for a Humidor. I will use a 12V peltier plate to both heat and cool when necessary. Can your controller handle this application? It heats when the polarity is one way and cools when it is the other.

  • @aquafresh1208 Sounds good... be sure to post back and let us know what you find out. Thanks!

  • @trytodiyguy thanks i'm looking forward to the responds

  • @Driver05t According to sellers on ebay, it seems the 220v version is rated for 10 amps, but I can't find what the 110v versions are rated. However, like I said in the video... I would ask a licensed electrician and the manufacturer of the controller any questions you have to confirm that or if there's anything you need help with.

  • @aquafresh1208 I have not tried to place my probe in water. However, the probe on these looks to be fully coated, and since you will find them labeled on ebay as "aquarium" controllers, I would guess they are water-proof. I could test mine out in a cup of water, but that wouldn't be the same as long term in salt water... so I can't confirm for sure. I would email the company and ask them.

  • Whats the max Watts on the stc-1000?
