## Heater and Power Plug Reference

<img width="979" alt="Screenshot 2024-01-02 at 3 43 44 AM" src="/assets/img/plugins/mqttchambertemperature/settings.png">
The easiest way to manage temperature control is by use of a [miniature heater](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07573FKSG) connected to a Home Assistant integrated power plug such as the [TP-LINK HS103](https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/smart-plug/hs103/). Creating automations for managing the requested and actual power state values via MQTT is then fairly trivial.
