I use one on my water tank bay in my camper connected to electric space heaters. Could be used in wellhouse to keep lines thawed, stock tank heaters, etc.

Farm Innovators TC-3 Cold Weather Thermo Cube Thermostatically Controlled Outlet - On at 35-Degrees/Off at 45-Degrees

I bought one to use to keep a pet area warm in an unheated outbuilding. Worked great, until the pet got lazy and stopped going outside to go potty.

The cube is now in use inside a non-working upright freezer, keeping liquids from freezing. Works great! Keeps better temp control than what comes on small space heaters and such.
 
In my well house I wired up a baseboard heater thermostat to a heat lamp as my back up heat source. In winter I keep a incandescent bulb on all the time and it keeps the well house above freezing, but as a backup (bulb burns out or extreme cold) I have the thermostat/heat lamp. I learned my very first winter here that you NEED a backup plan!
 
I have one in my shop hooked up to a light bulb. I can look out the window of my house and see if the shop furnace is working.
 
I have eight or 10 of these thermo-cubes for barn/shed/garage/stray cat heat lamps. I'd give them about a 7 out of 10 rating -- mostly OK but I don't entirely trust them, based on many years of experience. Some work perfectly, some are prone to failure even when new. When we (south-central MN) get down in the well-below-zero range, I make sure a few lights are plugged in directly to the wall, just to be safe. Amazon had them on sale a few weeks ago -- limit of four for $2.99 each. Heckuva deal, so I bought them as spares despite my concerns about 100% reliability.
