PID Temperature Controlled Solid State Relay

Ok, it's just a simple sous vide setup. Nothing really unique about this setup; lots of examples out on the web as to how to do this.

I purchased my PID controller from Sure Electronics (it took awhile to show up - almost 3 weeks - but it is very easy to setup and configure; the directions were comprehensible) and picked up the solid state relay from Amazon. An outlet and extension cord from Home Depot completed the necessary supplies and within about 20 minutes I had a test setup fully functioning.

I'm using an old crock pot as the water bath. I may try to find a hotplate that heats up a bit quicker at some point in the future.

[Edit]: I picked up this hot plate from Amazon. I've used it twice with no issues; it heats up quite quickly.

Now it's time to find some food items in the house to try out...
