Hey everyone,

Halfway through putting together the stuff required for me single tier 3-keggle eHERMS system. However I'm having trouble deciding on the proper element(s).

I will have access to 240V outlet, and plan on having two 4500W elements in by HLT, such as these: http://www.thegreathardwarestore.com/Camco-4500W-240V-Screen-Element-02343-p/808394.htm. As for the BK, to prevent burn-on/caramelization, I'm thinking about 1 4500W-5500W (ultra) low density element, like this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BPG4LI/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20.

Any thoughts, suggestions or tips!?!

Thanks :mug:

My research indicates that you are on par with the rest of the e-peoples. My HLT will have a 120vac 2000w element and my bk already has the ulwd that I got from amazon.
 
thanks for the input. Looks pretty neat but is slightly costly when compared to purchasing the element alone...
