I never seen that one before? I imagine you have to play with it to get the temps you want then mark it. I took a look at it on Google, and one thing I noticed right off the bat is it seems to only be rated for 300watts..? Thats not much if you are using light bulbs or IR heaters. You might be OK with Flexwatt and rack/tub setup, but I would add up all the wattage you are heating on that line. You really dont want to run them right at their limit either. I am sure they are rated for 10-30% over, but I get nervous. Fires are a very real possibility with things like this.

Be careful please.
