This tool is not known to have an accurate temperature guage. The guage moves, and it seems mostly right, but it hasn't been verified precise.

To-Do

  • Check that the guage is correct (use an IR thermometer or a thermocouple?).
  • Make some graphs of how fast it will typically heat up over time given different settings and flasks.
  • Get new ceramic drip tray (current one is cracked)
  • Put the PS1 equipment label on a hard tag and wire it to the power cord (affixing it to the equipment itself is unfeasible, it gets too hot.

If you find proof that hte guage is not correct, then you should (if you are capable of such) hack it to be accurate. I hear that ebay sells guages. I think.
