I think i now know what Mark feels like when he takes on projects way above his skill level now
right, beekeeping.....sometimes you have to warm the honey for vatious reasons and i have a warming cabinet but its simply not big enough - so this weekend i obtained a chest freezer and im planning to convert it to a chest warming cupboard!
Im planning to put a tubular heater in the freezer, a 300mm slimline heater is sold as a 28 watt heater. Im then wiring this upto a thermostatic switch like "this" STC-1000 unit from the bay.
The question for the techies - the switchable output from the thermostat will need a relay to power the heater - what rating relay do I need??
I googled Ohms law but its been far too long since i remembered how to use it!
Any cheap digs at electrical experience/history will be treated with the same pisstakery thaey were given
