What is Reddit's opinion of bayite BYT-7A014 DC 12V Solar Hot Water Heater Circulation Pump Low Noise 3M Discharge Head 2.1GPM?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

So is it even worth it for me to modify my current propane setup in a full on eBIAB? I have a 10 gallon Bayou Classic kettle currently and I'm not afraid to pop some holes in it.

The kicker is I only have access to 240 downstairs and I would really not prefer to brew down there. I do have 120v 20 amp circuits in the kitchen (actually 2 in fact).

I do full volume, 5 gallon batches BIAB so I would be heating roughly 7.5-8 gallons to strike and boiling approx. 6 gallons.

Would 2 120v 1500 watt heater elements achieve this for me? I've read plenty on building a PID controller and that doesn't seem daunting at all.

Plan would be to install a false bottom to prevent scorching the bag, heat to strike temp and maintain strike temp using controller and a solar pump or a chugger pump to recirculate mash and for whirlpooling at the end.

80mm is about R-9 iirc and I’d say you need more. On the other hand 200mm fiberglass batts are about R-30.

So if you have room then build the enclosure big enough for as much insulation as you can and don’t forget the bottom, a lot of heat loss occurs there. It’ll have to be built tight though or mice will get in and make nests of it.

Consider this though: heating only what you need for daily use is easier to manage and far easier to adapt to winter use. You know better than I what your needs are.

This is my $18 circulation pump, I’ve had it 3 years and it’s mounted inside the cooler.

This is my $18 shower head pump, it’s also 3 years old. It is cheap yet it lasts because it’s controlled by a foot switch rather than by its own rather flimsy internal pressure switch.

This is my $35 waterproof foot switch that is in the shower stall. This is a very high quality Linemaster switch.
