I just got one of Hatch's PIDs. I downloaded the Golander manual and read it. Still have some questions.
1. Should the thermocouple be left in the lead when the pot is turned off? Or put another way, should the thermocouple be in the lead while the pot is heating up and first melting the lead?
2. Does the temperature have to be reset every time the PID is turned on?
3. Any other tidbits on best practices for a new PID user?
