Best controller of temp w/ fans ??

What is a good controller to turn fans on/off w/ water temp?
I have a chiller on one tank, and fans that come on w/ lights on another tank--but temp goes low.
Any experience w/ controllers welcomed.

Most Aquarium controllers will do that. I have a Reefkeeper I and it turns a fan on and off over my sump based on temperature. Over 80.8 it turns on, under 79.9 it turns off.

Thanks snulma1.
What components do I need besides the Reefkeeper I and fan?
