Ealrybird Savings Plug in Thermostat Electric Digital Temperature Controller Reptile Greenhouse Heater

It works. Easy to use . Appears to be robust.

It does the job as described, but the UK plug for the heater has never fitted properly into the socket, so sometimes if it is nudged the connection comes loose.

Really easy to set up and works well.

Good, works well. Only goes upto 39 degrees though so not great for a greenhouse in a sunny spot.

Thermostat looks good, however its socket was such poor quality that when I fully inserted the plug from my heater there was no electrical contact. Being an electronic/electrical engineer, I realised the socket was touching on the plastic safety coating of the plug pins instead of the metal. I removed the cover to see if I could correct the problem and discovered a far more insiduous fault. The wiring between the thermostat plug and its socket reversed the Live and Neutral connections. This is a significant fault with safety implications. Needless to say, the unit is not CE marked. I resoldered the wiring to correct it, tweaked the socket connection and visually checked everythng else. The internal relay is suitable for the rated 2000W at 220/240V. It is not intended for use at 110/120V but if anyoe should try it you must downrate to a maximum 1600W load. Anyone who owns one of these should consider getting an electrician to test its socket or inspect it.

Easy to set up & use, good price.

The through plug is clearly not up to the UK standard. Looks pretty dangerous.

Very easy set up ,The remote probe gives great precise temp control in my greenhouse. the product is well made and robust
