We haven't quite left winter totally behind. There's been a couple of days where it's dipped down to 29-33 or so. This morning it just touched...
Finishing touch. Instead of just having the sensor sticking out the wall, I printed a holder for it. I just happened (really :)) to have some...
I should have mentioned price. Less than $30 overall, plus design time and tinkering. $16 for the controller, $6 for the relay, $2 for the outlet....
I found some terminal blocks, so really done now... [IMG] [IMG]
Concept -> prototype -> finished. I need to find some terminal blocks for the thermostat and thermometer. My box-of-stuff is out. [IMG]
An a successful shutdown as well. "It works!" :)
It didn't get super cold (down to 30F) last night, but MrsRojhan@ and I woke up to a cheerfully toasty pellet stove this morning, with helper fan...
Now that the mockup works, designing the final case for printing. Large gray box, bottom left: the controller. Box on the bottom/right: duplex...

We are finishing up our 2nd season of having the Englander 55-TR-PEPI and learn a bit more each time. We have a heat pump for the house, which...
Don't tell anyone, but FHC is a friendly, helpful, community. :)
All better. I'm still going to redesign how the surround attaches, but enough for now.
Startup went fine. Letting it cool down so I can put everything back together. Thanks, all!
So.... :doh: The clogged exhaust cleanout was the original cause. But the not working after was because I hadn't reinstalled the ash pan. There...
It's a new stove from Englander. Actually AM FM Energy. I've got an e-mail in to Englander support as well. The pellet stove isn't required for...
I wasn't going to *run* with the switch bypassed. I was just troubleshooting. :)
Thanks for the information and suggestions, all. I had cleaned everything other than the exhaust/tee at end of season. The installers left very...
Deleting from wood stoves and reposting in pellets. "Ooops" :) Posted to Englander support, but figured I'd post here as well to see if I can...
I'm experimenting with the existing thermostat, pending my DIY one that will do exactly what I want to do, even if I change my mind. :) The...
