mains plug with thermostatic switch
 
Does anyone know where I can get a mains plug that will switch on and
off according to temperature. Argos did one a while ago but it doesn't
seem to be there any more.

Argos.

Looks as if it should do the job. I have one made by Morphy Richards which
is both a timer and a temperature controller - with a sliding switch to
select either or both functions - but I don't think they still make them.

Yeah, it looks identical to the one Argos sold under the Winterwarm
brand. Thanks!

Hi,

Wilko may have these for £15, Ryness or Robert Dyas could be another
place to get them.

They're very sensitive, if they switch on and off too much try
covering the holes at the bottom of the unit with tape.

Some more info he
