Hi, A friend of mine uses a set point controller, and likes it. I believe it was purchased at Frantz Art Glass. This was at least 7 years ago, and I dont' know if Mike still carries them.
There are some great kilns out there with digital controllers. Chili Pepper, with a digital controller is around $500. Paragon has just come with some new annealers tpo this year. First you need to think about what your future needs might be for your kiln. Chili Pepper is a great bead annealer , but you can't fuse in it. You would need a brick kiln. I think another important safety feature is that the elements are quartz encased. I have an Arrow Springs kiln and controller. Maybe you can keep an eye out for a used kiln. ISGB has a used equipment section too.
