Thanks Jhandy, just what I was thinking. Now that you mention it, instead of a manual switch, I guess I could hook up a separate temperature sensor, (one that just has on/off signal) so when the desired temp is reached (say 180F) and a 50 amp relay to turn it on/of for me.

Any insights on brand/type of the switch or the temperature setting I should be selecting?

Anybody else (maybe at the tracks) have done this?

Thanks!
Fred
