Well I thought these were the best heater controllers you could get for the money.Don't feel the same anymore worked great for about 3 years .I have two on too different systems, unplugged them last summer as I did not need them, plugged them back in this winter and I get the E2 reading which means your screwed.Went to their web site[Ranco] and they say if you get a E2 reading your memory is fried and you need a new controller.Which made me raise an eyebrow why they have to actually put a code in there to tell you the controller is fried.I did some searching around and found this is a problem for others also.I found a lot of info on the home brew/keganator boards.Seems pretty crappy that both of mine screwed up at the same time.I did do some suggested tweaking like going from Fahrenheit to Celsius but I cannot get one to go over 79 and the other one has a mine of its own it might work for awhile then goes into E2 error mode.
Does anyone know of a good heater controller out there? I did check out some commercial units but the price tag was --how can I say it --OUCH!!!!
