1500W Immersion Water Heater,Fully Submersible Portable Electric Heater,5 Galons Bucket Heater,100% Waterproof,Easy and Convenient to Use

My application is to augment an existing homebrew boil kettle for beer making. My kettle is only 1500W so very difficult and sloooow to reach a boil. I tried a different band heat stick and found that it stopped heating somewhere around 150F. Returned it and ordered this one. I have used it twice for brew days and it has been successful on both occasions in adding the additional power to quickly raise temp of water/wort and produced a rolling boil when this heat stick and my boil kettle worked together for 5-6 gallons of liquid.

Water heater broke. This was used to heat up bath water...in a garden tub, lol. Had to leave in water for approximately 2 hours to heat up ½ the garden tub (then add cold), but hey, it worked. Love this thing. Who needs a hot water tank when you have this ! Seriously. Be cautious, you must keep it submerged under water at all times, if water evaporates, leaving unit exposed, it will melt !! This is the reason it has melted in other reviews, not properly following DIRECTIONS.

Don't buy. It's a Hazard big-time.

Works great!

I was skeptical when I bought this little water heater.I know it wasn’t designed for heating up a big pool… But I was hopeful that it would be able to do at least 5 gallon bucket of water. It did in fact do a good job heating up a 5 gallon bucket of water. Very happy with this purchase and the cost of this heater is well worth the investment.

This thing is awsome workes great I would absolutely buy again I use it in 5 gallon bucket and it will boil the water if you don't watch it.

20 minutes in a full 5 gal. bucket and very warm. Will be using it to heat a portable baptistry the next time we need to set it up again. Going to plug it into a thermostatic switch-plug.

Bought this to replace another brand heater. This item heats my small hot tub faster. It is also much better engineered. After over a month there is no corrosion or buildup on the heating element. The one this replaced started corroding immediately and shorted out after 5 weeks.
