Question What kind of kiln controller do I need?

I have an EvenHeat Hotbox kiln. It has a dial on it with Low, 1, 2, Med, 4, 5, Hi. There is a gage thing on it that tells me the temp, but I have to manually turn it up and down. I want a controller that I can just say, "Okay, 104 glass batch anneald for an hour ro two" then come back later and it is all done. What do I need?
My hubby has offered to get me one for Christmas. I am confused about this. I don't know what to tell him I need. Thank ya'll!

You will need some type of digital controller for your kiln. Mike can probably hook you up.
