    Artisan's M916

    Unfortunately for me mine was just enough to cook my transformer in about the first 30 min of use if not less. And man when they go. They really go !!!!! If I had it to do over again I'd buy a Comercial 12v unit for 2 reasons. 1 the power issue. 2 temperature control. The military units are...
