I haven't quite finished putting everything together, but should have pics in the next few days. I bought the biggest project box from Radio Shack. I ran the wiring in the above referenced thread by a friend of mine who is way over-qualified for this kind of thing and he suggested putting a GFCI in there to protect everything. Here's the wiring diagram I made from his instructions.

I still need to label the plugs.

Switched ones are: Top-right = Heat. Bottom-right = Cool.

The plugs in the GFCI are always ready.

Dang the readout looks pretty good. Have you plugged it in to your fridge? What asweet find.

I haven't hooked the fridge up to it yet. Heck, I just finished the wiring right before taking that pic. I should probably do that before I commit a beer to its control, though.

By the way, I noticed after everything was done that there was a note talking about a capacitor that should be connected with the temp. sensor, but a capacitor wasn't included. Same for you?
