Raise your hand if you have ever left the stove and/or oven on after rushing out of the house, or you were just too excited eat the masterpiece you just created...

With a little help from niolabs engineer Aaron Ranard, we will be hooking up a stove and testing out this concept.
In order to make this happen, here are some heat sensors that would potentially work:
