No problemo.
You've just "completed a parallel circuit". L.
ps. After finishing your heater, try wrapping it around your arm to test for temp.
You'll soon know if it's way too hot. hahahahahaha..
pps. I'd forgotten all about my 'alligator/crocodile clip' trick/post, errr, way of getting the correct temp.
ppps. A PWM (Pulse Width Modulation), unit will let you control the temp more accurately. Cost about $25 odd?? Not sure, as I make my own for lot less, as you know.
Would you like one? Only cost ya $40....
Hiya Laurie, long time no see! I've been waiting for you to pop up in Skype!!!

Thanks for the info mate. I have some pots I can try. Hopefully they won't be the Carbon core ones. They are from a busted monitor.

I am attempting to make a single control box for 4 items all run through pots. ED80 heater, Guidescope Heater, Toucam fan, and a spare for whatever.

Hopefully the Power supply will drive them all.
