Okay, I took out the thermostat and tested it in a pot of water on the stove. Took it all the way up to 210 degrees and it never opened even a little bit. Seems like such a simple device to be DOA like that, but whatever.

Now my question is, is there a particular model of thermostat that people have had good luck with? What temperature rating should I buy? What about "high flow" models?
