Default fan controller advice

Going to install a constant fan controller and was wondering which is the best one on the market? Vinci? Thanks

Why not just have the fan settings changed in the computer with a dealer or shops software? Save the controller cost.

I've had no problems with the Vinci unit and a 170 degree T-stat.

I was going to do that but I am in Australia and this is probably the cheapest way around it or I would have to buy a programmer that I will never use again.
