"Hello
This is a photo of my kegking 2200 watt element. It is approximately 4 months old and has been used 6 times.
*photo inserted*
It looks like the casing around the wires have melted. Is it still safe to use?
Regards"

Hello Andrew,
I am very sorry about that. It looks like you have one of our old design units. We had a lot of issues with the old ones where the nichrome heating wire was installed too close to the back of the element and too much heat was transferred to the cord of the element. It’s best if we replace it with a new unit.
Do you still have the receipt? Or do you know when you purchased it and we will look the order up on the system.

Hi Kee
Unfortunately I do not have the receipt. I purchased it from TWOC brewing supplies in Bibra Lake WA, either the last week of September, or the first week of October.
