Hkeyees,

I put a voltmeter on my control box that just lets me know that the oven is plugged in. The needle reads 240V when I plug it in. You don't need this.

I put an analog thermometer in the oven before I knew that the little temp controller box tells you what the oven temperature is in a built in red LED display. So my oven tells me the temp in two ways, the thermometer and the controller. You don't need the thermometer if you use the controller.

The timer switch is something I put in istead of a regular on-off switch. So If I forget that the oven is on, it will automatically turn off in 45 minutes. For a cheaper oven, you just need an on-off switch like a regular lightswitch.

I see people using toaster-ovens as powder coating ovens and I believe they use 120V heating elements that are 1500 Watts. I will try to find some of these. I'd lke to make a Bill of material and schematic for the 120V oven using the most least expensive components for people like yourself who are trying to keep it inexpensive, 120V, and fully functional.
