I wouldn't think that the solder would hold up to the torque you may apply when tightening the element. But if it has worked for someone, I guess it does.

I'd appreciate it if you could check on the type of JB Weld. I'm assuming it handles the torquing when you screw in a new element and tighten it down. Did you do any roughing up of the pot surface?

Alternatives to enclose heating element wiring

What are others doing to enclose the wiring where it attaches to the heating element? Anything working better than a 2 gang outlet box with a hole punched in it?

Anyone use JB Weld?

So I think that the hole for my heating element is just a bit too big. When I put in the element, there is some play between the threads and the hole. I can get it to be leak proof sometimes but...

Since my PWM will only allow a duty cycle of between 10-90% I wanted to have a way to run my element full on (100%) while I'm bringing the wort to boil. So there is that little switch in the middle....

That switch does look like it will work. This switch would handle the power coming from the wall into the box. So the light will come on when you turn it on but then it is the PWM that switches the...

Bobby - does your 1/2" ID silicone tubing fit over the big C even though the big C has an OD of 5/8"? I'm assuming it stretches?
