    Results of first test. I find my make shift water heater needs better insulation, but if I take a shower with this at peak I can get the best value out of this.

    Temp peaked at 139 deg F, for 20 gal, per the data I am reading I am putting in 800 – 900 watts of power to get this temp change. It is good to have a baseline of what is possible.
