The Orton controller on our Paragon Fusion 10 kiln takes 30A TF 3 relays. Anyone know of an alternate source for these that's cheaper than Paragon ($30.25)?

Same as used in my Paragon kiln. Also known as: T92P7D22-12

Thanks for the online components source Valerie. It looks like they've got great prices and a good inventory.

I have found that Gopher Electronics (http://www.gopherelectronics.com/) and Mouser Electronics (http://www.mouser.com) are also good. Gopher is currently charging a few dollars less per unit for my kiln's relays, but they do not seem to have the T92P7D22-12 in stock.

Incidentally, for relays are folks preferring the T92P series or the T92S series? I have humid conditions which means I lose about 1 relay per year. Are the sealed (S) relays preferable for this reason? Or is the issue more one of the contacts?
