I am thinking of building a bottom pour pot and thinking heating it via; a Heat Cartridge close to the pour hole and a wrap around heating element. The pot size will be either 4in by 6 in or 6in by 8in.
I intend to switch on the cartridge only when the lead has been heated up to temperature so i can avoid the pour hole from 'freezing' up.
I am stuck with the Wattages required.
- How many watts will i need from from the wrap around element?
- How many watts will i need from from the cartridge?
Any help would be great.
