Great January 3, 2022 Reviewer: Goldie Bradley from Bucyrus, OH United States   This thing is great I run brewzilla with the 500 watt element and the hotrod heat stick  with 1650 watt elemnt. Cut heat up on half and the boil is great way better then just the 1500 total  from the brewzilla alone. Well made will buy more from bobby at brewhardware.com Was this review helpful to you?

More Power February 19, 2021 Reviewer: Adam Frey from West Chester, OH United States   Using this with a 1650 watt element alongside my 5500 watt built in element.  The result cut about 45-50 mins off my brew day due to the shortened ramp times of heating to strike, bringing to boil, and cleaning cycles.

Excellent piece of kit! December 9, 2020 Reviewer: Nate from Morgantown, WV United States   Converted my 120v 1500w Lowes special over to a 90-degree HotRod, and I'm very pleased with the result! Instructions, especially the YouTube video, are great. Clean-up should be easier, the supporting spring-clip is perfect, and there will be no more questionable PVC / JB Weld contact with my brew.

Superb Design October 2, 2018 Reviewer: Tom F from Aurora, IL United States   Bought to replace a previous DIY heat stick I made using various plumbing fittings.  The Hot Rod design is spectacularly simple, versatile , and genius with the TC connection.  The YouTube wiring video made wiring a quick 15 min job. Highly recommended. Was this review helpful to you?

Awesome August 23, 2018 Reviewer: Graham Philbrick from Durham, CT United States   Great product, better than drilling through stainless pots if they don't have ports.  Also the joints are clean and better than the DIY heat sticks you see elsewhere Was this review helpful to you?

this thing is great and I'm super happy with the u August 6, 2018 Reviewer: Brock Seals from Santa cruz, CA United States   Benefits Makes clean up a snap Easily travels from HLT to boil one dual post 20 amp circuit for the dryer works well 5500 element has raw power and heats large volumes rapidly . A fifteen gal is aggressive and even with thick wart  the low d element won't burn it Easy to install with a male 7' wip wired it to a 30 a female bought  20 feet of cable and male plug from Bobby make sure you have him run the cable he's not kidding I couldn't do it.  I stripped the ground wire jacket back to get all 3 in. Bobby's cable is better.  For a nice touch I took the ext jacketing from a shrinking garden hoses and it's really nice buy your element at home Depot for 20$  I'm on my second element Disadvantages None really .  you must be a little more careful and aware. is it nose up in your hlt which you didn't fill past 2 gallons. The blow wasn't bad Thanks again for liberating me from the flames Bobby. Was this review helpful to you?

Very straight forward January 12, 2018 Reviewer: Brian Reuwer from Alexandria, VA United States   I'm not very technical in any way but I found this very easy to put together. My only knock against the kit is the washer for the heat stick is a little small but otherwise great kit. Was this review helpful to you?

Work of art September 12, 2017 Reviewer: Steven Hans from Chesapeake, VA United States   Every detail of this tool is beautiful.  The stainless steel is extremely thick and did not show any rusting during my 60 hour sous vide session.  Some of the lesser quality stainless steels will show signs of rusting.
