Or you can just take a rheostat or dimmer switch or whatever and and mount it in a wallbox inline with the AC and badabing badaboom your twenty dollar weller just got a whole lot fancier. The just use a thermocouple and sharpy to mark various temps around the dial.
Odd request but here you go:

It's really nice because it has a really shallow design so that it doesn't take much horizontal space
The freezer cord plugs into the wall outlet socket mounted on the back side. this plus this.
That outlet is powered by the controller, which is powered through the cpu socket.

A apologize for my confusing question. I hope this helps:
Out of battery, in to dc-ac inverter (linked above).
Out of AC-side of inverter. Into the back of a wall plug like this one. This will be installed into a wall and used to power stuff.
Upgrade to tamper resistant outlets. They are now code in many states, and are quite cheap. They work by having a gate over the top two holes, that only moves IF both prongs are being inserted.
I think it's a very nice plug, no question. I'm not sold on the usefulness of having a fuse in an individual cord. I can count on one hand the number of times that I have actually had a circuit breaker or fuse pop correctly, and it seems like fuses go bad for no reason more often than they go bad for a good reason. As evidence of this, think of how many times you have just replaced a fuse without having to fix anything else - that's a sign that the fuse shouldn't have blown in the first place.
In the US, we do have plugs now that require both prongs to be inserted simultaneously, making it similarly impossibly to stick a screwdriver or whatever in there (http://www.amazon.com/Leviton-T5320-W-Resistant-Receptacle-Residential/dp/B0015R9M2Y/ref=sr_1_131?ie=UTF8&qid=1421376706&sr=8-131&keywords=safety+outlet). As I understand, these are code for new construction in some places. I view these as the best of both worlds - safe, but no ground prong required when not needed.
The final thing is that the UK plugs have nonconductive prongs except at the tips. I am not sure if this is doable with the US plug as it is much more narrow, and any plastic may break. It would be really nice if we could have that too.
So I'd call that a 1 point advantage and the UK plug still wins.
