-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Does anyone know offhand when the HotTop started including a built-in voltage regulator? According to their site, you don't need a variac any more as they have one built-in. I'm looking at picking up a used HT (a D upgraded to a B) and was curious if I might still need to dig up a variac to go with it.

Ben, In converting from a D to a B model, all of the electronics are replaced so it is exactly like a new B model. Therefore it will have the voltage regulation circuitry. Mike Chester

Thanks Mike! That's great to know. I wasn't sure if the voltage regulation was built-in some other way on the B. That clears it up for me. --b Mike Chester wrote: <Snip> Homeroast mailing list Homeroasthttp://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20">http://lists.sweetmariascoffee.com/listinfo.cgi/homeroast-sweetmariascoffee.comHomeroast community pictures -upload yours!) :http://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20
