DIY inline heater

The link for the water tight fittings is no good but I'm looking for them now because I like the idea.

*Update*

Found the place ordered 4 samples 2 black and 2 gray....

ya thay work well and i never had any leaking issue with them but i didn't really mess around with it that much. i know other people have used them and had them leak so test them out and see how you like them. should make this project easier.

Will do and I agree they should make it a lot easier thanks for all the input guys.:worthy:
 
Okay I built my heater and below you can see the picture of the entire deal. I did some research and had some help from a few people that led me to the Helco water tight cord wrap you can see on the end that allows me to adjust the heater. Now when I build up the next 29 I will have full build photos of the thing but right now it is still in the testing stage. No leaks so far and using a 300 watt jebo heater it seems to be working like a champ. It heats and cools rather rapidly and I'm having to adjust by feel since I can not see the actual temp gauge on the heater and it is not the most precise anyway.

I also built a spray bar for my c-160 and it makes a huge difference in the outflow of the filter but again I will show the build for that on the 29 I'm working on now.
