Or if you don't like McMaster, and you don't mind having to prove you're a
biz-ness, there's probably a Granger's near you.

(But as long as you don't mind paying top dollar for everything,
McMaster-Carr is very nice to deal with).

Funny thing is that Grainger is McMaster's biggest customer - this according
to a friend who works for McMaster sales in Georgia. Guess they have tiered
pricing system.

I just searched for a replacement thermostat for my chest freezer. Things
been running full on for about a month now... Grainger had a bunch of bulb
type 'stats in the 50-200 dollar range, none of which thrilled me. The OEM
part from Sears was ridiculous- could have replaced the whole freezer for
that price.
Grainger also listed an electronic unit with thermistor probe that was
programmable for use heating or cooling and had a LCD readout of
temperature - made by Ranco. Model ETC-111000-000 Digital Temperature
Controller was $75 from Grainger and $59 from Ranco online.

I figure that I'll mount this to the wall next to the freezer's electrical
outlet and wire it into the outlet. Most of the exterior of the freezer is
used for heat dissipation from the condensor - so I'm a bit hesitant to
drill mounting holes.
