Like workin with someone that always has a better idea than you do no matter what .Can you tell us how the $50. plug in unit works if you DONT rewire the MES
2 thermostats , 2 brains one element . Don't work out .
If the new plug in controller is set for 250 , and you set the stock controller to 275 . If the stock controller thinks it's 275 and it's only 225 , it opens the circuit and shuts the element off .
