Newbie - Considering an Order
bradenl123:
Huky500T 1180$
Replace ET analog with digital
72rpm motor (what are the pros and cons of a higher rpm)
Solid Drum
IR Stove 99$
Extra MET 18$
Extra Tray 16$
Extra Fan 48$
Extra Bowl 49$
Extra Funnel 14$
I like rhawea's setup for the independent cooling. I will also get Phidget. Is it easy to connect probes to phidet? Is there anything I'm missing that will allow me to get that extra oomph? Also this could be a stupid question...is the IR Stove independent or does it connect to a tank? Final question: is there anything I need to make repairs or replacements along the way?
Thanks,
Braden

Ah, I replied to your other thread just now, but here goes.
The order looks good. The only thing that I have found out to be a good extra item is an extra Thermocouple at about $20.
The Phidget connects very easily, just get a case for it.
For the IR burner you do need a tank. I use the smallest propane tank available (about a US gallon size), but anything will do. Apart from that you may have to find a gas pressure regulator with just a bit more oomph than a standard BBQ regulator. 50mBar/20inH2O will do nicely. (It's the same idea as with this one at MillCityRoasters, but I guess there are cheaper ones available.)
Last, try to find some kind of voltage regulator for the exhaust fan. Again, a router controller will do nicely, while a light dimmer is a bit too small for the job.

Mr Li will send you the regulator you need for the propane tank. You should do a search and look at the safe way to connect the gas.
Also look in the reference area for directions on how to set up Artisan and your Phidget.
I am not sure I agree that a back-up thermocouple makes sense on the original order. I know it has happened that T/Cs have failed, but the incidence seems very small, and the MET T/C could be re-homed temporarily while a new one is ordered. But suit yourself.
The wording of your post is a tad confusing. You want ONE exhaust bowl...."extra" suggests a second, but you do only want one....

Doesn't that show two? So one extra?
SusanJoM:
Heck, I don't even see one in that picture.
But, if you do want two (and it's not unheard of), you will need to factor in another $49.00 since each one is an add on. There is not one included in the base package.
