🌡️ DIGITEN DTC151 Temperature Controller: Ultimate Plug-in Thermostat for Greenhouse, Reptiles, Homebrewing, and Aquariums - 110V 15A for Efficient Heating and Cooling Review

I don't think this controller is UL recognized. The temperature controller works great. I have used it with a 15A train heater and the unit, plug and socket get quite hot. I replaced the power plug as it felt warmer than the other parts. I found the 16 gauge wire, which is a light weight wire for 15 amps. Nice controller if they use 14 gauge wire. I would not run any device that exceeds 10-12 amps with this controller.

I have a garage in Alaska with a Toyo oil heater that has the lowest temp of 50F. In winter the outside temperature reaches -50F so I have to turn on the heating to prevent freezing. Since I wanted to keep the inside temperature of the garage above freezing but didn't want to pay for oil to keep it at 50F, I bought a DIGITEN thermostat. The processing quality of the controller is excellent, there is nothing cheap about it. I installed the controller between the wall outlet and the heater and…

UPDATED 4/15/2020. After a few months of use, my device started saying "ERR" and wasn't getting hot. I contacted the vendor's customer service and received a warranty replacement within 5 days due to the COVID-19 fiasco. AMAZING customer service. I'm back in business. Great external temperature controller. I used this to fix my Masterbuilt Smoker that died. I put the thermistor in the closet and wired the smoker up so it was always on. With this device I can control the temperature in the box…

I am currently using the device as an additional remote controlled thermostat for an oil heater. The problem with these heaters is that the internal thermostat is so close to the heat source that it is very difficult to set a constant temperature. With the Digiten-Block the sensor can be placed up to two meters away from the heater. It is possible to set the heater thermostat to a slightly higher value than desired and then program the Digiten to turn off the unit at exactly the desired…

Most small electric heaters have a thermostat somewhere inside the case, so they don't keep a constant temperature very well. In this case, use a heater that does not turn off in the event of a power failure. They turn that heater on full blast so it won't turn itself off by its own thermostat. Then set the Digiten temperatures on and off. Then the heater maintains a very narrow range. I get about 1° or less deviation on the wireless indoor/outdoor thermometer unit a few feet away. When the…

Preferences: Accurate thermometer (as opposed to a calibrated thermometer). The reading was only 0.5°F higher than the actual temperature. - Display of current, working and end temperatures on the *same* screen. It's so easy to check the settings. Most other thermostat digital output switches only show start and stop temperatures. The thermometer can be easily calibrated if necessary. A very sensitive temperature sensor reacts quickly to temperature changes. Large, high-contrast and bright…

I installed two exhaust fans (in parallel) in my attic to remove hot air. The bimetallic thermostat that comes with the fans from the factory left a lot to be desired. Often the fans would not turn off at a reasonable temperature. The on/off temperature window was so large that the fans sometimes ran all night even though the temperature in the attic was relatively cool. I can't imagine how much electricity that old fashioned thermostat wasted! The DIGITEN product was easy to install and set…

I bought this to power my electric smoker almost a year ago. The thermostat that came with the smoker wasn't very accurate and I kept adjusting the knob to set the target temperature. end (min/max range) and it should keep everything nice and warm in the smoker. Problem #1: Accuracy decreased by about 12 degrees Fahrenheit. I've tested this with two of my other digital thermometers that I use to check the temperature of meat. . This sensor consistently reads about 12 degrees colder than the…
