I can't buy a dimmer switch that has to be installed in a wall...its not my wall....
I don't want a screw-in lamp dimmer. I want a dimmer that plugs into a standard wall socket.
I don't want a touch dimmer. I want a rotary dimmer that I can tell in one look if 100% of the power is flowing, or 50%.
I dont want a remote switch. Those tend not to show how much power is running through a heat pad. A lamp would be easy to see, but not a heat pad.
Plus I would like something that is less than 30 bucks.


Why can't I just find something that looks like a simple extention cord with a little dial on it?


Anyone have any brands I should look at? I've been searching various stores and the web all over all day.
