Thanks Steve.
I've just been having another play with it - the EBay number - and have been looking at the available menu settings - which includes a heating hysteresis and a cooling hysteresis. The default values were each 5C but I've reset them to 1C (no smaller units available). But I'm not sure I fully understand what hysteresis means in this context. I assume it's a tendency for the thing in question to keep heating or cooling after a setpoint has been reached - like a tendency to overshoot the set mark - but I am unclear about what these settings will actually do.

Can you throw any light on it?

Peter
