herman, i put the kit in my B1 and although working fine, i don't realize any improvement in shots or procedure. it helps control the overshoot. also, i don't know if the pid even works to max potential with the 900 watt heaters. the new ones when they switched to pid controls are 1200 watts. in short, i would use you new ako for a while at least. - Dennis

New controller and new thermocouple. Everythings programed and working great. How much difference does the pid make? I tried monday and today to order the kit but it wasn't ready. My bII had been idle since last wed or thurs and i was going nuts. Now that the parts have arrived and everything seems back to normal i'm having second thoughts. If i had known that the pid kit was going to be available this soon i would have waited but now that it's all up and running i'm wondering should i just wait until this controller or thermocouple fails? ideas? thanks. herman _____ From: Ira <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tue, January 18, 2011 3:54:24 PM Subject: Re: E1 on power up At 10:37 AM 1/18/2011, you wrote: > I hope you're right. I called wll and they said the kit was not in the system until tomorrow. Hopefully the parts will come in today. Well, that's the same part I had Barry order and it came with the controller and the sensor. While you don't need to change the sensor, unless you're going to change to the PID right away, I would just for the overshoot readings. Barry was surprised the first time he turned it on, set it to 92 and saw the temperature go to 94. the stock controller lies to make you think it's more stable than it is.
