What are the dimensions of the thermometer probe? I’m looking for an appropriate thermowell to purchase along side this.

Does this have the built in GFCI plug? The image shows regular 3 prong.

Great but issues with GFCI plug
Have been using it with a RIMS setup and works flawlessly. Able to supply enough watts to heat up 7 gallons of strike water for a single infusion and sparge batch or 13 gallons of single infusion no-sparge batch in normal ambient temps. And keep mash temps at or above 153°.
I recommend putting the temperature sensor on the out port of the RIMS tube. Would be nice if the pump would sync with the heat so they would both be active but pump needs to stay on.

Check the GFCI plug, mine stopped working consistently and would only work on certain outlets.
