That beats the price by $40, Thats the price of 2 all grain batches.

I would also mount the heater tube vertical instead of horizontal to avoid air bubbles in the tube which can lead to scorching of the wort
 
But I would at least want the RIMS heater to be on the tri-clover fitting, way easier to remove it without unscrewing it for drying/cleaning after a batch.
