    Homemade Load Bank

    I built mine to put a controlled load 78% to 120% for break in. The ease of controlling with a load bank is the best way IMO Thank you Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk

    Homemade Load Bank

    I would look for a old ac air handler. Modify with the 3 20k heat strips each on separate breaker. Use the blower, remove the coil. I have seen a libby load bank on ebay awhile back for 900. Almost pick it up. But it was more k than I needed. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk

    I your opinion does the 1040 run as smooth as the 803a? I have not seen a 1040 in person but videos I've seen looks as if there is more vibration on the 1040.almost like the 802a. Thank you, Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk
