[RE-wrenches] On demand WH

[frenergy]

Dan,

        I am with you on that one....standby power consumption makes me think of battery sulphation.  The 30 watts Ray mentioned for the Rennai would be a deal breaker for me. 

        Hopefully I'll hear from a few others regarding standby losses...doesn't seem very important what consumption may be during firing as it doesn't really represent very much actual time.

Thanks,

Bill

  You'll have to shop around; there are still some that use no power. As a hard-core off-gridder, I hate seeing standby power use, and even worse a freeze prevention heating element. A good old pilot light keeps them from freezing too! Geez.
