My DIY Controller (220v)
This is my diy controller I made for my 5500watt heating element in my keg. I finally received the meter today and got to finish it up.

Re: My DIY Controller (220v)
Thank you after using electric I'll never use gas. It's safer (main reason) cheaper, and heats up faster.

Yes sir I do. I used a bigger box and buss bar to connect the wires to make it easier and look cleaner instead of wire nuts.

Re: My DIY Controller (220v)
Nice controller. Is there a parts list and schematic. I tried the link above but it did not work.
Re: My DIY Controller (220v)
Nice work. That's a cool box, bet it was spendy. The damn box usually ends up being the most expensive component.
Distilling at 110f and 75 torr.

Re: My DIY Controller (220v)
Nice job, are those 110v LEDs? Where'd you get those?
Hangover? I don't get no stinking hangover!
Re: My DIY Controller (220v)
Is that a Drok brand meter you've got in there? I have 2 for my box I'm working on and was wondering how they perform?

Re: My DIY Controller (220v)
Your link to the Brewhaus site is broken.
I'm thinking that this is the controller that you built. I built this controller and I'm very happy with it.
