What are the design options for someone who wants a 5500watt element in their HLT and a separate 5500w element in their Kettle but only has 30 amps of head room?
I've seen:
If you're supporting 2 elements with a single PID, won't switching the temperature sensor mess up the PID's calibration?
Thanks,

I've seen:
- Use a 30amp 2 leg mechanical switch (don't like this option, too much personally)
- The EBrewSupply 30 amp 2 element PID kit solution (3 way switch, 2 SSRs, 2 contactors)
- Setup control panel as if you have a single element and just physically unplug the HLT and plug in the Kettle (I'd prefer to have both vessels permanently connected, but this is a really simple options)
- Is there an option that uses a 3 way switch and a single SSR and contactor?
