Heater Controllers Swap

[gmartin1215]

I have the heater controllers that are the manual turn knobs. I am thinking about upgrading this to the push-button digital.
Is this swap plug-n-play?
Aside from the print wearing off the buttons, are there any reason not to do this swap?

Never mind. Seems like this will be more pain than it is worth. I'll stick with the manual controls.

Changing temp is tedious/slow, and small buttons require some concentration.

You would have to wire up 8 temp sensors and the sunload version of light sensor.
I *believe* it's do-able without programming...

Dials are better anyway!
