    Auber Dual 1800 watt PID - What heater?

    Morning Dave, I not an expert, so I don't know how much I can help you, but I've had mine over 450° the first time I used it, ...I programmed the PID wrong, I would think the heater would heat to whatever temp it would reach before it failed and that would probably be higher than any temp we...

    Hey Dave, Welcome to SMF!!! Your link for the oven doesn't work for me, so I don't know how big it is, so I can't really say if the 1250 watt is enough. I can tell you of my experience with my GOSM that I installed a PID controlled heater strip in, it has 9.6 cu ft, ...I started out with a...

    Things I miss....

    "Soda Pop" was cooled in water coolers, they cost a dime, on a hot day we would rub our faces with the water on the "glass" bottle before we opened it to cool off. Manual transmissions that had to be "double clutched" to shift gears. Paper routes. I'm with Dave, going to the movies "only" on...
