Direct replacement, easy install and works great.

I'm using this on a home brew system to heat a 7 gallon HLT to 180 degrees. Works just fine on a standard 120 Volt 20 amp outlet. Water temperature started at 60 degrees and took an hour and a half to accomplish. During my timed test I did not have a lid on the HLT. Therefore, if the lid was in place, I would imaging the time would be cut by at least 15 minutes.Installing this on a stainless steel kettle is simple. You will need a 1 1/4" hole saw that is designed to be used on stainless. I purchased mine at Menards for $8.99 and a pilot bit for $3.97. Just read the carton to insure it can handle stainless. You will also need a round file to de-burr the opening.Purchase the silicone 211 O-ring, and stainless nut that everybody else recommends in their reviews. Tighten up the nut and wire it in. Make sure you use a cord rated for the wattage that is grounded. It is very important to use a ground on any metal container. If you don't ground the kettle you WILL be electrocuted if you touch the kettle while the element is plugged into an outlet.No I didn't use any controller. I just plugged it into an outlet.

Works like a charm!!

Water heater, good quality and reasonably priced

Our small water heater is not too common and this fits and works perfectly. No trouble at all installing it.

Put this in my new still and it worked flawlessly. Got 10 gallons boiling in the middle of winter in an hour and a half.

Perfect fit, easily connected and works great and our small RV water heater
