I phoned up wizard and they sent me a "brochure", well dodgy photocopy
of what you are supposed to do.
I just fancy making one myself so the works no a worry, besides I've
not fired my Mig up in ages :)
I am very interested in performance though and your friends figures
seem very promising - how hot is really hot ?? I figure you need about
70 degrees water temperature to really feel the heat.
I wonder if the Wizard ones had any sort of Heatsink inside them for
better conduction ?? like the air ones. And do you fit two ?
