This may be a new approach for a cartridge heater...
« on: November 29, 2020, 09:57:26 pm »
It seems I've been putting a immersion style cartridge heater in just about everything these days, maybe I should give this a try....what do you all think ? even comes with a carrying handle.

Handle’s on the right end for picking it up to drain the boiler too  :D

And if you need to use the Weller, just let the boiler run dry and it will come out  :D  :D  :D  :D
