Long time lurker, first post. Great board, I`ve read nearly the first 10 of 24 pages here, but please bear with me as I`m no electrician.
I have a household oven that I`m using right now, but, like everyone else I`ve learned its just not big enough. I acquired another household oven( freebie) last week. I was looking at doing the pregnant oven thing for awhile, but figured I have 2 working ovens, why not join the two together for the time being until I can afford to build one to my liking.
What I have done so far is disassemble the second oven; which was an oven unit only, no stove top, cut the back out of it, and joined the two together. I want to run the elements in both ovens to cut down on heat up time and hot/cold spots. Can I wire both elements to work off the existing controller of the first oven, or would I be better off going ahead and upgrading whats there with a PID such as this one
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tchlink:top:us which would allow me to use it later when I build my oven ? I have no money in either of these ovens, so spending a little isn`t out of the question, but if I do need to upgrade, I want to buy something that I will be able to use later. I think I want to upgrade anyway, but need to make sure what I but will work on both setups
Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post.
