Pluggable line voltage thermostat

[TomC750]

Is there a line voltage thermostat available I can plug into an outlet and a cube heater into? The problem I have is in my garage bathroom in which I try to maintain about 60*, the differential is way too wide with this heater and a previous one. I guess I could install a thermostat and tie it into an outlet. Just looking for a simple solution.

Yes. they sell them for the Salamander type portable heaters. I would check to make sure they rated for enough amps of your cube heater. in a salamander they just run the fan and ignition ckts.

I used a salamander in my old shop. I bought 110 volt thermostat connected to a regular outlet rather than the ones made for that application.

Thanks tailshaft. Probably won't find one at Lowes or HD though. There is an electrical supply house locally however.

There are tons of these things made for home brewing use to turn on and off fridges, freezers and heaters. Check out these for examples:

I also just found this thing. Not sure how well these work:
