Ya, youtube deleted me at 40K subs and over 500,000 views on that video. No oone is really sure why other than being bigits and puppets to their advertisers and being overly cautious with "community guidelines.
Working on getting the video back up, but need to make sure I am in the OK first and havent got a clear answer on that yet.
#1 bullshit Gene, hope you get it back online.

There are a lot of places to post the video brother. I bought all the stuff 3 days before they took it down and still looking to complete before my legal grow is complete lol.

Hell I can even host it for you (IT Director) to where no one can touch it.
YouTube is a joke

Relay doesn't need a heatsink turns out. Lemme know I'd you need help with the PID. Its easy
Thanks, I have a Lazer thermometer and it's saying the thermocouple reading is higher than actual.

I didn't know it didn't need a heat sink but I ordered it and it fits in the project box so I put it in anyway. I had to buy a small roll of 16 gauge wire, I just used white for everything.
The plates, heaters, pid, relay, heatsink, cords, project box, drill bits, 16 gauge wire, 10 ton press and wago connectors cost me about $530 (Canadian) total. Everything from amazon except for the press and 16 gauge wire (princess Auto)

Do you think the heat plate kits going around now would work better? I found hydraulic presses on Jeg’s website 6 ton for$107 free shipping
I don't know, if I was going to do it all over I would have a pid for each plate, and a larger project box. I would install both pid's to the lid of the project box. The heatsink and relay would mount inside the project box. This would make it easier to wire.
