    Steampunk Control Panel Mount

    I got exactly 22 minutes out of my Fotek ?40 AMP? SSR, before it melted down . I was timming how fast the temperature was rising, and at 22 minutes...poof. it was toast.

    Foteck SSR's @*^^?&#! JUNK

    Hey Men, I should have been more clear with my statement of the thermal paste application. I used maybe 1/2 of 1 tube for both SSR's. I think the tube was .5 grams

    Shed Expansion for Dedicated Brew Space

    Yes Sir, those propane fired , tankless water heaters are awesome. My old RV water heater died last season and I cringed at paying $500. Bucks for a new 6 gallon RV water heater. So, I got a 12 Liter per minute tankless water heater like you got for $90.00 shipped to my house. It gets hot in...

    Foteck SSR's @*^^?&#! JUNK

    I know you don't need much, It's really not as much as it looks in the picture, I got 2 little tubes with my purchase, and I didn't even use 1/2 of 1 tube. I tightened the SSR's down pretty good, and had a little squeeze out. When my ssr blew, it made a popping sound, followed by massive...

    Foteck SSR's @*^^?&#! JUNK

    Well about a week after my last post , I did get my new SSR's and new heat sinks, even though I really didn't need new heat sinks. I got a good deal on the SSR's, that included the larger heat sinks and thermal paste and I thought it would be even better with the larger heat sinks. So I...

    Getting a good whirlpool

I use kegs, so my element is about 4 1/2 gallons high or about 4" off the bottom. I also made the BK a bottom drain, mostly for cleaning purposes. I did install a side...

    Foteck SSR's @*^^?&#! JUNK

    Well, 1st of all, in the case of these brewing control panels we're talking about here, I don't think you size the heat sink(s) for the ssr's by the total amperage of the panel. You have to size the heat sink(s) to match the ssr's. Say you have a 60 amp panel and you have (1) 60 amp ssr. Yes...
