I'm trying to figure out how to add a thermostat to a propane smoker. I'm seeing the threads discussing the topic, but I'm not sure they solve my issues.
First, I need something that works with no power. It's got to work at camp in the woods, so I'll have no electricity - just propane. I was planning to use the gas control valve (2E854) & pilot w/ 750 mV generator (1RC59) from Grainger, but I don't understand the thermostat hookup. Do traditional two-pole oven thermostats require external power? If so, what type of thermostat doesn't need external power?
Thanks,
Jon
