> Heck, Bird + CD have water loads that use tap water.
Used Altronic loads like the 9705 are typically under USD $500 used and about
$900 new. The 9705 is good to 5KW and higher power models are even more
prevalent on the used market. They do require running tap water at about 2-5
gal./min. and can be connected with a standard 3/4-inch garden hose. A flow
sensor is interlocked with the transmitter to kill power when flow drops.
During college, I used a 25kw model connected to a deep sink. Crank the tap on
the faucet and start pumping out serious power. Hot water output is dispensed
in a sink drain. Even at 25kw, the resulting water with adequate flow feels
quite warm but never hot.
