Einstien was a wave solder guru? Lozie - if you keep you solder pot cold, how do you solder parts?

Hi Stephen, So are you guys talking from a facilities standpoint that a cold solder pot saves enery on your AC? If so, Corvettes are cool as long as you drive with a popped collar. WML riding a Huffy = LOL!

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

"In your example, you are comparing "Energy used to heat the solder and keep it warm" versus "Energy used to keep the solder warm" and fully discount the fact that the machine was ever turned off." Track and field fans refer to this as the "Bob Cost

Turn off your solder pot and let your glue gun keep it warm. If the glue gun catches fire it will be vented by the wave and you will suffer less damage. This damage will will be cost justified by the leaving the pot off.

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?
