No, we haven't compared bills because we rarely let it cool completely down over night. I would think that the cost needed maintaining 200C over night versus 310C over night would be about the same, but a little less. But going from 25C up to 3

Ours was accidendally left on overnight many years ago. Razed the factory to the ground. No facts - just a hunch- turn it off.

What? When and where did this happen? What company?!?! You could sue the wave manufacturer or didn't your company have insurance? Sounds like a shady operation to me or just a tall tale.

So, does turning off your glue gun at nite save energy or should you just leave it on? LOL!

Huss, Great conclusion to what I believe to be a record thread (in hits and responses). Some people just have too much time on their hands.

With the added bonus that the glue from the gluegun will form a natural barrier on top of the solderpot which will dramatically reduce dross build up. Shouldnt we get this patented Chunks?

Hi, Thanks for all the info. Do you have a Nitrogen generator for the selective soldering machine? How does the cost of running that compare to the cost of keeping that big pot in the Delta wave hot? Have you ever experimented with check the costs

What are the area and aspect ratio of the apertures that clog? When you print, you should be able to fit at least 4 of the mean sized solder sphere across the width or diameter of your smallest apertures.
