Temp controller..

[TheNomadRhodes]

Hey guys and gals, I'm in the market for a temp controller and want to see if any one can recommend one..
I'm looking for a simple controller (if there is such a thing) that I can set to temp and plug my heaters in to it and it will help keep my temp in check.
I've been having a real problem keeping my temp in check, I'm all ways having to mess with the heaters in my 120.. So I was hoping some body could recommend a controller that will be simple to use and set and not cost a small fortune ..
Thanks a bunch

I have the Ranco controller on my 55g which has been working flawlessly for several years. I now use a ACjr on my new 90g, but the Ranco works great.

Thats where I got mine over 5 years ago. Dual stage Still works great. I hope it continues to do so cause I have lost the instructions and would have to come on RC and Post to reset it. LOL Nice piece of gear for sure.

Yep, Ranco is the best. I've had two units and have loved them both.

Single controller good up to 1700 watts. Tho I don't think I would try quite that much.
