What I really want to do is get started and I won't have 240 4 wire available for several weeks and I want to get started on my control panel so that I can use a 120v RIMS tube I bought that has a 240v 4500W element in it which yields about 1125W at 120v.
I want to make the control so that I can plug the RIMS tube in and control the temperature at the exit and later when I get 240 available then either rewire the RIMS tube or just jump in with both feet and put a 5500W element in my pot.
Can this be done without wasting a lot of money for the flexibility. In my mind I can do it, but I need some encouragement.
