Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Ferric Chloride storage

From: Adam Seychell <adam_seychell@...>

I've heard of people using aquarium heaters.
TIME = TEMP_RISE ∗ VOLUME ∗ 4200 / POWER
Where: TIME is approximate time in seconds to heat. TEMP_RISE is
temperature increase in kelvin. POWER is heater wattage, VOLUME
is solution liters.

You will only get a tired arm holding the heat gun and increase
your electricity bill.
