Default Re: How many amps?

Hey man just get four elements that are the easiest to mount meaning they have some sort of bracket. So you can just drill holes for the wire ends and then just screw the mounting bracket to the frame (I used metal studs). Don't let all those numbers get to your head. Just get four no less then 1500w and no more than like 2600w. And it will be cool beans. Get that voltage s@it out of your head to they'll all work dude. H@ll all four of mine are different I call it the ramping effect LOL. I got two out of a oven that was old as dirt. And two from a not so old one. Hell one is thin rolled wire in porcelain holders. Thats old. It's all about the heat and holding it. Will get you fixed up man. I'll call you tomorrow I'm four hours ahead of you here in the burgh (home of the super Steelers). Now's not a good time my kid and old ladies doing his homework and it's not good. I'm ready to flip the f**k out. I got to give him the keep it up and your not going quad racing this week end. Yea like that works.

later call ya tomorrow

Trey, if you're looking for used oven parts, be sure to check out www.craigslist.com This is a free want ad site that has sub-site for Los Angeles and surrounding areas. In my area, there are several free ovens available every day through CraigsList.

No need to pay retail when the parts are sitting out at the curb.
