Id still love to see your box, as that is something i am more able to reach, soon enough never thought about touch screen integration and all of that, my pc has three monitors and a watercooling system, over clocked and .....blah de blah, defiantly something i can pull off eventually but i like simplicity at first, understanding of a system is key

do you have all of that running threw one PSU? If so what unit are you using. If not are you running your heat and stir arms on a secondary power supply?

There is a big advantage to a simpler system, it seems that I spend more time coaxing the software and various components into cooperating than anything else. Over 2 years into this project and it still is not done, I would like to return to a simple design that works reliably, with a minimum of software and hardware.

Hey sorry I didn't see this post.

Yeah I run the control panel off of a standard 120v outlet, I run the heating elements off of a 220v power outlet like you use on a dryer.
