Yeah - he said something similar to me about not spending a lot of money on Herpstat and just go with the $35 stats on Amazon. I still ordered the Herpstat after reading about them and members input here.

I've found Bob is BIG on UL, ULC, & CE listed products. He has a valid point in that every electric appliance, tool, etc. in your house should have that listing but the idea of a $35 stat without the safeguards that defaults to full on vs the Herpstat that shuts down just doesn't make sense to me.

But to each his own.
