I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. You are a fantastic teacher, entertaining, thorough and explain technical concepts in a clear manner. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. I enjoy the straight forward approach to your projects. When I was in school the vocabulary for PIDs was gain, hunting, error, offset, loads and targets. You done a great job explaining for the masses. You're inspiring there is a fastferment in my garage now and I had to do some explaining of my own...to my wife. =)
thanks George i love to listen on what your taking about with amps and volts and resistance .. one way to say this about electricity is that electricity is a movement of electrons through a conductor.
Hey George, you are amazing!! Is there topic that you don't know everything about. I think it's great that you are so knowledgeable in any and all subjects. I also wanted to tell you that you are so easy to follow along with. Ciao buddy!
Please confirm - I have a 4500 W, 240V, heating element. I'm using it on a 120 V, 15 W, wiring in my home. It heats up fine if a little slow. The math I did for the amps in this case is (4500 W /120 V)/4 = 9.375 Amps - Is this sound?
I'm running a 4500 W 240 V hot water tank element in my RIMS tube on 120 volts plug. It gets hot but it takes time. Does this mean there is potential for 37.5 Amps on my 120 V 30 Amp line?
A 4500 watt 240 v element running on 120 Volts is only operating at 1125 watts at peak performance. I can see why it takes time to heat up. You'd be better off with a 2000 watt element rated for 120 Volts. They cost around $9-12 at Lowes or Home depot. George
I have a Digital PID Temperature Controller ITC-100RH + k sensor freezer heater relay. I know the power go's to pin 9 and 10. I don't know what pins the coupler goes on and i don't know what pins the heating element goes on. It's for a foil press and i need to set it for 280 c. I'm not familiar on wiring these units. Thank you.
You will need a relay for that PID. Pins 7,7 are for the relay. The probe goes to pins 3,4 make sure you pay attention to the + and - signs for the probe. If you get it backwards it will read backwards. George
Well, yes it is the same thing. I get it. Word usage is important but the true meaning of SV and PV is (set value) and (perceived vale) according to the generally accepted terms in this case. I use perceived temperature since temperature is the data point in question. In a nut shell, the perceived value is a digital term used as a reference point to measure from when another value is added to the equation. In this case it happens to be provided by temperature. Thanks for pointing that out. George
her is what I would like to do , I would like a 50 liter keg so I can have a 3 liter head , but I wound like to talk to you and see if a beer keg would be good for one or two , I want it to be the best .

+Tim Cho Cool. I hope the fastferenter pays off and when the product is done the explanation will be easier (smile).
Thanks for the compliment

Thanks for everything George, awesome job with this video, Bobby, VA

By the way, long videos are the best. When people make short videos, they can make them short because they leave some things out. 😎
+Frank Daniels Thanks for teh compliment. I hope people gain from watching them. That's all I can hope for.
George
I really really like the way u explain things..big fan
i want a video on pid connected to a drive.. honeywell 1040 96 ×96.. how to connect that..
wiring n controlling
Is the thermocouple waterproof?
how to put indicator light on it
Thank you George!!

why are you only using a 2-pronged power cable?
As opposed to what? There is no ground on the PID. The only ground is the main and the kettle.

How do compare the Inkbird controller to MYPIN TA4 SSR controller?
They are equivalent. Probably the best two for the money on the market. I like teh Mypin TA 4 because I much more familiar with it. George
Might be better to just say up front: V=IR and P=VI=I^2R. Did you say "temperature perceived"? That's the same as temp measured, right?
Well, yes it is the same thing. I get it. Word usage is important but the true meaning of SV and PV is (set value) and (perceived vale) according to the generally accepted terms in this case. I use perceived temperature since temperature is the data point in question.

very interesting, thank you

Sounds like you are on the right track.
thank you :)
Thanks for the video, but voltage is like pressure, current is like flow.
