[QUOTE="NickWallingford, post: 2843, member: 44"] I'll see if I can lay my hands on that article I (ahem...) referenced from memory. See what it says specific re: single vs double, and the methodology used to get to that. And a correction on something I said earlier - the place to put the small piece of polystrene for insulation is below the wax collecting container - helped to keep it hotter while more is being continuously added/dripped in made for a more consistent block of wax at the end. What I might rate highly for a melter? Being able to move it readily around! My last one was too large, really, making it so heavy I was disinclined to re-aim it at the sun later in a day. I think small and regular would be more effective than my attempt. Nick [/QUOTE]
