You guys that are getting rust....are you dismantling your setup each time? I haven't seen a bit of rust on mine, and I have no anode or silicone. But, I clean out and remove my element each time. It can't rust if it's dry. :drunk:

My BK never rusted one bit either but I did wipe it with olive oil after the first couple uses... HLT got the same treatment and rusted and kept rusting which is why I replaced it with a brass based one. dpending on how its grounded and the metal composition of surrounding metals it can be a non issue or a big one.
