cheers for the great advice, really helps a newbie with melting ssr probs.
There is a $15 40amp ssr on ebay with heatsink and thermal grease, it looks the same as mager one (blue and clear plastic? you recon it is worth a try or any recommendations where to get a decent relay to power a blichmann boil coil 5000w i think.
Australia if poss or will order from usa, also can you use a voltage regulator to turn down the coil for a steady boil?
Thanks in advance.
