A controller for a dual-element electrical range burner with a user-adjustable normally closed bimetal blade cycling switch having a resistance heater adjacentthe bimetal and connectable in series with one of the burner elements. In one embodiment, a user-actuated mode control switch sequentially closes a set of normally open contacts for connecting the other burner element to the power line. In a second embodiment, the mode switch has one set of contacts series connected with the heater for the blade and connectable with one of the burner elements. A second set of mode switch contacts is series connected with the cycling switch connectable with the other burner element and bypasses the blade heater. User actuation of the first set of mode switch contacts energizes one burner element and energizes the blade heater for effecting thermal opening of the cycling switch. Upon user actuation of the second set of contacts both burner elements are energized with the first set of contacts remaining closed. With both burners energized the current flow through only the first burner element controls the cycling switch for regulating both burner elements.
