For my birthday, I got some good weather!!
High Temperature 54.5°F
Low Temperature 40.6°F
The new 555 timer unit was almost a drop-in replacement.
I did bring the 240vac-to-5Vdc power supply inside,
to add on some heavier wire for connecting to the terminals.
Got to use my new soldering iron (B-Day gift from wife).
The 555 is driving the SSR just fine so far.
Maybe we'll get to see that 63 second delay working,
if the lows get back down in the 20s next week..
(Causing defrost cycles).
The remainder of this month looks pretty mild..
