I'm thinking about building an AG system and have been looking around at people's setups. I haven't seen any tankless hotwater heaters used for RIMS (or would that be HERMS) systems, but it seems like an obvious use to me. For $200 you can get some small 3kw heaters designed for bathroom sinks:

Seems like with some modifications to the controller this could make a good mash heater. Someone else must have tried this already. Are there some obvious pitfalls I'm missing?
