It's not a perpetual motion machine, but the benefits that it offers outweigh the use of a mechanical pump.

My issue with this is a LOT of folks do believe it is perpetual motion, hell with just one person suggesting such in this thread it shows I have actually made some progress around here. Used to be the majority believed it.

I guess I need to look into this 160 thermostat and get some tuning. My temps are constantly 210 and never really dip below that. I always thought that seemed way too high. Where can you pick up these 160's?

nm, found one on Speed Inc., but I'm wondering if $47 is the norm. I'll shop around for cheaper prices.
