Hey folks, I live in the middle of Vermont where the power goes up and down like a yo-yo. Last night there were a few power blips and now my temperature reads 190, but the water is 145 - 147 farenheit. I think something is amiss and I don't know where the problem is, other than the digital read out / prgrammer is messed up. Any idea where I can get a new one?

Did this issue ever get resolved? I ask as I just confirmed a similar issue with my boiler, the actual water temp is 15 degf less than what the boiler reads.

Power fluctuations play hell with electronics. First place I worked out of high school always suffered from low voltage problems in the dead of summer when everybody had they central AC’s cranked.
Converting all the production machine over to 3 phase with using frequency converters with auto compensation helped a whole bunch there.
All the office stuff got put on auto compensating backup power supplys.
I’m lucky, I’m on a main feed, my single phase always reads 120/240 and my three phase is a rock solid 240 at all times.
