We also keep our pot just below the liquidous state over night. It takes a lot less time to get it to temp than a cold pot and we aren't creating dross over night. If you have been shutting down over night for some time, then you can get an average

If the biggest waste concern your company has is the power loss for that wave........ya'll are doing good! Why not take it even further and plan your jobs ahead and only run the wave 3-4 days a week and leave the pot down the rest of the time? That w

CK You keep forgetting to factor in time. The "lots of juice" is say 3 times as much but it's for 1/5 as long. And you are wrong about the AC part as well. Do you also believe that warm water freezes faster than cold water? I saw that presented on T

it'll be cheaper if you'll let your wave machine up all night and let it in its idle temp (supposed to be 200��C) simply because it will need less power from idle temp up to operational temp compared to from 0�C-operational temp. Temperature Sensors

Crashoveride, That idea is similar to the analogy I came up with, with regards to a programmable thermostat and home air conditioning. (ie leave your point within a few degrees of desired point) STEPPHEN - aka, Man-of-the-World, all-knowing, Super

Verbal history says it was the wave. Written history says it was a glue gun plugged into 24hr power and left on. Destroyed the top floor of the then 3 year old factory. "PLANT'S on fire" -good one!! I thought I paid good money to keep that vid out of

Chunks, So in layman�s terms you are saying shut the darn thing off, if you�re not using it? And by the way your explanation brings up some memories; I once had a boss that spoke to me the same way. The results are still visible, I shake my head to
