Where to get thermal cut-in switch?
Does anyone know where I can get a thermal cut-in switch for my solar can heater project? And if anyone has built one of these, do you have an idea of the optimal temp to have a fan cut in?
I've been looking around at the usual places, Home Depot, Rona, appliance repair shops, plumbing and heating shops... nobody seems to stock them!!? |

These are neat..
