Mate, I don't run my still with a controller. I use 2 x 2400W elements to get her up to boil the switch the top one off. Then I work the Defleg (RC) in orde to control the reflux and collection rate.
It's crude but works very well. I wanted my $$ to sink into expanding my whisky making gear so didn't bother with the controller... just saying!
