So here I was scoping craigslist the other night and discover a MES135S for FREE about 5 miles away. "Heating element dead", was the only text of the ad. Hey! no problemo !! Lots of cleaning, reviewing etc to do before any major step. Need to test the element, etc. Yes I have an extra new 1200 watt element sitting out in my smoking shed.
My intent will be to go Auber since I have a couple extra Auber controllers and believe in it versus staying stock. I have a both a WS-1211-GPH and a WS-1510ELPM, sitting around twidling their thumbs. I will also build a mailbox for it.
So, here it is all nasty looking but has a smile on its face, knowing it will be coming back to life soon.
