TheClark Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Just a crazy random thought. Picked one up, makes great chicken! I wonder, could it be a fresh or salt rugged aquarium heater? Mine is 1200 watts and was 40 bucks. Supposedly stainless throughout. I am not going to try it, it was just a random thought... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeklet Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I had thought about that, but for heating RODI for water changes! Seems like it should work, but haven't tried lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxkenny90xx Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I don't see why not! If it's safe to heat food with it should be safe in tank water. Maybe email the company and ask how it would do with saltwater. But 1200w of heating power is a scary thought... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMeyer Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 My concern is that there are many grades of stainless steel, and while many work well in freshwater, few or none are completely saltwater safe. I think only titanium is really inert enough for long term exposure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
