Ya, make sure you're at work when you blow the fuse. That way you get a warm welcome when you get home!

Brad do you run the chiller inline with your return pump? Also, try increasing the differential it will make a difference in fuse consumtion.

Ya, but then life is just the same everyday. And since I already have chiller, throwing it away becasue it runs on fuses might not be the best plan.

between 78-80 for me too, anything warmer and it means less ice for my rye and coke and more for the sump

Jack, no, I have dedicated pump. The differential is set to 4 degrees, that's the max. I don't blow fuses like I used to, but every now and then, poof!
