Hey all,
I've had a chest freezer hooked up to a single stage Johnson A419 temp controller for about a year now and have had trouble during the cold season with the ambient temperature being slightly below my desired temperature. Basically I think I need a second stage. If I were doing this from scratch I'd buy a two stage controller and a heating element/freezer, but I already have the one stage controller so I'm not sure what to do. Should I just suck it up and buy a two stage? Is it possible to buy another one stage controller and easily use the two controllers in conjunction? Thanks!
