these ?

or something else ?

Thanks Maheel
these are 2200w , would they do in a 50 litre keg ?
thinking of a twin element set up, for a quik heat up, would they would do the job ? (faster is better :lol: :lol: )
the better 1/2 is getting on my case about the naked flame thing here ( thanks to SBB filling her pretty little head with worst case scenario's :x )
but I like the fast heat up that gas 747's offer :auto-layrubber:

I have a electronics whizz that lives up the road , he said if I get the elements he can do the rest with PID's (what ever that is :? :? )

cheers Stubs

2 x 2200w in a keg would be sweet :dance:

It's got me thinkin Mac
2 elements, 4" flange, ss drain in bottom, ss tap out the side, fuck this is one mighty addictive hobby huh :doh:

Hold the bus ...... just found this

What's the postage to Australia on that element SD?

I don't know Devo
I reckon it's from Ukrane , It's probably dodgy :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:

edit: says.... $ 22.17

funny that postage to Germany was also $22 and considering the Ukraine is only about 1500 kms away I find that a bit :crazy:

Stokes make the elements here in aus. You want the 2400 watt Incolloy screw in hot water element. If you have a look through their catalogue you''ll find it and then email em for your closest electrical wholesaler that deals with them.

Best is the 825 sheathed element..2512bl. The 800 one is second best ... 1329bl

Last one i bought was a fair few years ago now, but around $50

Not worried about amps cos I had a 30 amp outlet wired into shed for welder ( the welder is hard wired in at the on/off switch, but a 6-pack or 2 in the right place and a couple of plugs etc and problem solved) :D

bigger is better is it not ? or is it 3 phase or something ?

I know that philosofy ( I know, I should'a paid attn at school) :doh:
All I was meaning is that... current draw does not represent a problem, I assume that a 15 amp outlet would be a small problem in homes... is all ;)

Just got a price on the 2512BL they are now $144.44 inc gst + post, + a 2 week wait, cos they have to make them as they are no longer a stock item :(

Fuck it Stubbs,stick with the 747 :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling: Better still make another :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:

I wish I could BD,
but SBB unmeaningly :roll: ( good word that..I just made it up :geek: :laughing-rolling: ) has filled the better 1/2's head with worst case Alcohol & naked flame scenarios :angry-extinguishflame: , now she's going crazy :angry-screaming: and her head is full of shed fires, explosions, insurance issues, hospital & doctors bills from me being burn't to a crisp :auto-ambulance: etc.
So to keep the peace I have to :angry-tappingfoot: build an electric boiler ,
so I am going to make a fukin doosey coz I will never get the opportunity again :dance: :dance:

Geeeeeeze all I said was "Id keep the output a bit further from the flames"..........
I think the truth of it is that the BD 747 demonstration you gave her that day might have caused most of the feelings of fear and concern. :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:

yep , paranoid, that's it Paranoid to the MAX :laughing-rolling:
But in this case, its done me a favour :dance: :dance:
