We had a thread a while back generally lamenting the accuracy of the thermostats
built in El Cheapo greenhouse heaters. Well you get what you pay for - if you
are prepared to pay (a *lot*) more I noticed at least one offered in Two Wests
& Elliot's new catalogue which should give very acceptable control. The energy
savings ought to recoup some of the cost but above all you will be confident
that your plants are safe. They do two - one has a traditional capilliary
thermostat (not bad), the other has an electronic thermostat with a remote
sensor (*much* better), tho' the resolution and accuracy aren't specified it
should do the job.

I think I might have been the original poster on this subject :-)

With hindsight, one of the heaters on the twowests site you suggest would
have suited my purposes - Ah well too late :-(

Follow up to my problem - My *third* parasene 2Kw heater from B&Q actually
nearly works as advertised i.e. I'm almost confident my greenhouse plants
are safe using the "frost protection" setting :-)
