Ed - what temperature can you get the $24.95 laminator to run at with these controls? I am sure the control module will give the command all the way up to 800F, but how hot do you think the laminator will run before the heating element runs out... or starts melting plastic? Have you tested it?
Do you have any info on how to install? photos, drawing?
is the install just putting the Thermocouple probe thru the case to the rollers, then wiring the 120 VAC thru the control box?
I am surely interested.
