I am thinking about installing a rheostat on the heating element. The element is an 800 watt.
I am trying to "slow down" the heating cycle at low temps to reduce over shooting the set temp.
Will a rheostat work? What would be the drawbacks?
This is one unit, not necessarily the one I would purchase, but would it work?

If my thinking is flawed, what direction do I need to go?
