Default How Hot is your Heater?

How hot do most of yalls heaters get and how long does it take? I have the NX unit with the transducer and it gets warm but not hot. Im wandering if i need to use a little bigger wire for power to the relay.

mine will burn your hand pretty good when its not attached to the bottle. when on the bottle it gets pretty warm. i used a 10 gauge wire and a relay for it.

the bottle really keeps it alot colder than it would be when it is unatached. ive suffered a mean burn from it when it was unattached

i run the harris speed heater and it gets hot fast and stays that way because of the insulation materials used
