Just for fun, I briefly re-wired my brew box (which normally controls a direct-fired {propane via 24V Honeywell valve} RIMS mash unit, aka R2-DBrew) to control my Death Star pumpkin. The Death Star is equipped with a 5 mW green laser wired into a 3V power supply that is switched at 110 line voltage ...

Thanks for the input. It looks like you're right--I got it all running last weekend and there don't appear to be any issues. Well, no electrical issues, at any rate. I tried to convert a 6" high pressure banjo-like burner to low pressure, but when I got the flame burning right it still didn't p...

OK, so the basic wiring setup worked fine. Everything does what it's supposed to. I still don't know about interference with the temp probes, but I went with a much bigger box, so I've got a bit more distance. Unfortunately, I'm still waiting for my temp probes to arrive, so I don't know if there wi...

I just wired a box with precisely this setup for my Manual/Off/Auto switches. One SSR is switching 110VAC for my pump, another is controlling the 24VAC for my Honeywell. I've got 110VAC and 24 VAC indicator LEDs wired in parallel to the corresponding loads. As you mentioned, with no load plugged int...

Hi, I recently got my BCS-460 and just about have all the bits I need for my system. I'm constrained for garage space, so I'm just making a single burner (based on a Bayou Burner frame) direct-fired RIMS unit (Burner converted to low pressure 11" WC LP gas). I'm driving that with a Honeywell st...

Thanks for the tip. I picked one of these up and it works great. VERY easy setup!
