Does anyone have this on their stove and if so...is it easy to install, how exactly does it control the heat output and is it really worth it?
 
i have one on my stove, put it in last winter, its very easy to connect to the stove (just remove the jumper clip and insert the 2 wires in its place) the stove willl run on a stat in a "high/low" manner, yu would chose the heat range you wish the stove to run at when the stat is calling for heat, the stove will run at that setting until the temp is achieved on the stat, the stove then drops to low and runs just like you turned the heat range down to 1. if you currently only run the stove on heat range 1 anyway , no need to put in a stat, but if you run any higher its worth doing. i kick myself regularly for not doing it sooner with my stove
