Water and conductivity

[AndyD]

Hi AndyD

No, not an electrode heater. These shower heads have a bare, uninsulated element that heats the water. Checked it with the multimeter. 11 ohms from end to end and decreasing resistance as the one lead is moved along the element towards the other end. Definately not electrically insulated from the water.

This is the unit.

Cheers and peace out

Wow....I can't believe they're selling those here, they're just wrong on so many levels...

Surely they fall laughably short of the IPx5 requirement in zone 1 for starters?
