Re: Is too much wattage a bad thing?
Yup, electricity is charged in KW/Hr Double the wattage, but half the time = same cost. To large of elements increases the setup costs though, The contactor size, wire size, all play a role too. If I were to stress anything from building my own ovens, is Insulate, insulate, and insulate some more. The better insulated the oven is, the faster it will heat up, adn the less power it will take to keep it at cure temp. My large oven has 10" thick walls.
