    Going through auction 803a

    I started with a 55 gal barrel and a variety of water heater elements. It worked ok, but was a hassle to fill, to drain, and to store. Water and electricity seemed like an accident waiting to happen, so I've been looking for a smaller, safer alternative. I recently switched to a pair of 240v...

    MEP803A heater

    Agreed. There is a huge difference between pictures that don't match the item, and them refusing to turn over the actual item you paid for. That feels like fraud or theft. I hope they make it right for you and everyone else in this mess.

    MEP803A heater

    Before bidding there are a few things I look for in pictures from GL, GP, etc.: 1) Look for a picture that shows the event & lot numbers (often the last picture) 2) Look for a picture of the data plate (includes the serial number) 3) Look for a picture of the hour meter Check any numbers in the...

    Just picked up a 2009 MEP-803A

    If it's cold, you might want to pre-heat for a good 30-60 seconds.
