Blichmann Controllers

[radwizard]

On the Blichmann site there is a pretty big sale going for both 120 and 240 controllers. Maybe they are unloading inventory and coming out with something new, I don't know.

Anybody running a 240V Blichmann controller? I'd like to hear likes and dislikes about the unit. I'm thinking about picking one up today. $250 is the best deal I have seen on 240V.

im seeing 312.20 but its the better 240v controller according to blichmann and this one includes a power cord and probe it seems.

The last time this discussion came up it was about blichmanns version of the $40 stilldragon kit controller with just the knob and ssvr inside. That controller was like $250 but the power cord was like $60 extra.. looks like they bundled them or its just . Its a decent value the 120v version is 212.20... no cord

I believe blichmann is about to release something new also.

It's $249.99 here, and it includes a 12' power cord

It looks like a tremendous deal and I'm tempted, even though I don't have a 240v hookup (yet). I'm looking to convert to 240V BIAB and this might be a great option at this price. The 240V Digiboil would wind up being less expensive, but this has a lot more customization.

plus its not a one piece throw awat item when it breaks as most of the "versions" of the chinese water urn systems end up often being.
