Heidi, Here is the definitive information on the temperature and chemical limits of poly(?) tanks.

I'd been there a few days ago and noted that the problem was electrical with one specific poly configuration. My questions were really trying to see if there were any Other poly configurations that had worked or was heated-poly in all of its forms going to fail and who had direct experience of it? Even some of the information I got from past posts was contradictory. One fellow has friends who have used poly for years, and knows others where it failed spectacularly, but there is no data on what is different in the two (or more?) configurations, if anything....so more questions trying to pull that configuration information. If it's out there and I'm not sure it is. Todd was kind enough to say he uses poly, but not to cook in. Part of me wants to get a bunch of poly conicals and cook them in different ways (but with extremely limited variables!) to discern what their safety parameters really are. At the least it'd settle the is-non-insertion-heated-poly-safe-to-use question once and for all. Poly's not cheap though, so I resort to asking others for their experimental data. I only wish there was more of it. I'm with you completely on other people's experience costing a lot less! Thanks to everyone for their help and keep the poly experience specifics coming, if you have them!
