    RIMS for Dummies

    RIMS Build Update (lots of pics)

    Where did you find a 4500 watt element that runs off of 120? Also, I think as long as the element was low density, it should be fine running dry, plus you should be more worried about ruining your $150 marsh pump from running it dry then a $15 heating element
