Thanks for the info, I did talk to them and yes they said it wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't for an extended period of time, However, for a 8 to 10 hour smoke they said it wasn't recommended and could damage the unit. SO I stepped up to the 1500 unit.
Yea I looked at that, by the time I bought the ssr (relay) a heat sink, a project box, thermal paste, a couple of IEC sockets, and the time involved it wasn't worth the time and trouble, they gave me 30% off so the cost spread wasn't very significant factoring in all the previous said; and...
