I wanted to run a supplemental fan for a new RV refrigerator (Dometic CRX-1110E). There did not seem to be a way to connect the fan so it would run only when needed. I saw this and decided to try it. It is a good choice for this purpose.I strapped it to the compressor with zip-ties and wired the fan into the RV 12V system. When the compressor is running and gets warm, the fan turns on and helps with exhausting hot air from the area behind the refrigerator. Then, when the compressor is off and cools off, the fan turns off, saving energy. It saves me from having to manually turn the fan on and off.

Bought this to replace the non working one in the blower for my Lopi Freedom wood stove. Seems to be working well after the last month of use. No more cold air blowing when the fire dies down at night and comes on as it should when the stove has warmed enough. Be aware that it is quite a bit larger than the original that was installed. No deal breaker but had to drill some new holes to install it within the existing aperture. That being said, can't beat it for the price and if you have pulled your old blower to repair it you should have the skills to fit this.

This was amazing to use but only lasted 3-4 months. I know it's not real expensive to replace but disappointing that it didn't last longer

These switches actually come in a variety of settings as to On/Off Temperature activation. i used this switch on a Can-Am Spyder to control a small blower near the engine to improve cooling in high traffic situations where there is not enough air flow for the engine.The switch was easy to connect in series with the blower and worked just as expected, on at 100 degrees and off around 85-90 degrees. After testing for a while I will be ordering another of these but with the setting for 105/95 degrees.Highly recommend this quality piece of gear. Amazon carries several varieties of this switch but even more are listed on the Senasys site.

I used this on a heater in a retirement home room. The heater is cycled hot water with a constant running fan. The unit is under an outside window. When the hot water stops then you get cold air. I put this switch on the heating element and in series with the fan motor. Now all you get is heat and no cold air. Makes the room a lot more comfortable because of the even tempature. I always buy through Amazon if I can because of good parts with good prices and no rip offs in shipping costs.

I'm an amateur carpenter and tinkerer of all things flashy and shiny. I built a cabinet style TV stand / AV hutch for my flat screen and entertainment components. The front of the unit has doors which stay closed most of the time, so I needed a way of keeping all my toys inside cool. An AV receiver can get hot pretty quick if no ventilation is available. I've heard the latest gaming consoles will put off a good bit of heat as well, and one of those will be in the unit soon too. Given my need for a breeze, I installed two small PC-style quiet cooling fans (12V, 200mv each), wired in parallel and venting out the back panel (airflow enters around the doors). I then wired this temperature switch between them and a 12v wall wart rated for 400mv. Once the temp gets a little too high in the cabinet, the fans kick on and cool things down within a matter of minutes. The temp does have to get a little hotter than I would like to kick on, usually around 95 or so, but the next temp scale on the 80 degree switch had a low end of 65 degrees. My house temp runs around 70 degrees, so that switch would have caused the fans to run all the time. Granted there are other options for my application. I wouldn't feel right describing it above for others without mentioning the fact that you could go with a ready made product like the "Coolerguys Cabcool1202". That is an all-in-one cabinet cooler with the power converter, dual fan setup, and thermostat all built it. It runs around $70 and has a slightly lower temp scale, more suitable for cabinet electronics. I like to tinker, and didn't want to spend that much money though. This little switch suites my needs, and my whole setup only cost about $35 to construct. Note that you will probably need to construct some sort of bracket to securely fasten this switch for oddball applications like mine. I made a simple one out of a piece of wood, two small bolts and a few nuts. Also check out the power range of this thing. I'm only running it at 12V and 400ma. However, it will carry up to 250V @ 25amps!5 stars because it works, not sure how else I would rate it. I did not deduct given my need for a mounting bracket as that was an application specific issue, not a product issue. Also, I have not tested the actual open/close temps with a separate thermometer yet, but these types of switches are usually pretty reliable within their specified ranges.
