I know some of you guy's can't wait so I'll give a quick overview
about 10" wide x 12"high with an access door
Has a toggle for on/off and wood /electric toggle.
A red low water light and a green on light.
A two line display with a button to toggle between screens
A back light sw/for display
Also a push button for start.
It come with a flue gas probe and a temp probe and outside temp sensor.
supply and return sensors
The digital read out on top line
thermal storage,flue gas temp,supply temp,return temp and outdoor temp
The lower line is for backup electric and any failures it will flash.
There isn't alot of extra on the provided leads so your limited to where to put it unless you extend them.
Also it will shut down 10 min.after the flue gas temp is less then 5* greater then the water temp so you can reload but I think I'll feel better pushing the start button in case the sensor doesn't pickup the temp increase in time and you have a fire with out the fan running.
That's it for now
 
I sure like the shut down feature based on flue gas temps! I may have do see what the cost of one is when they become available.
