3. Wait around 2 minutes. The voltme-
ter on the handle indicates the generat-
ed intensity. The optimum intensity is be-
tween 12 and 15 volts and the indicated
temperature on the thermal label locat-
ed on the left side of the cover should
not surpass the 75ºC. If the temperature
is higher, then it is because there is an ex-
cess of flame. The colour of the bars on
the thermal label varies according to the
reached temperature. If the bar is black,
the temperature is inferior or higher to
the figure it indicates. When the bar is
green or blue, it indicates the tempera-
ture the Thermix heat sink is at that mo-
ment. But an increase of flame does not
mean necessarily an increase of power:
if the flames are excessive or surpass the
edges of the device, this will heat up but
will not generate watts.
4. Connect to the desired device. The
experience will tell us what is the nec-
essary flame. For small mobiles, this is
surprisingly low (such as the smaller
flame of an alcohol burner). For a max-
imum performance it will need 2,500
watt, which corresponds to the big-
gest burner on a domestic gas hob. With
this power the two light bulbs included
in this kit will light up. When connect-
ing the bulbs, mobiles etc. the voltme-
ter will show an inferior number, but do
not worry: Thermix is an electric power
generator without autonomic regulation,
so the intensity shown decreases when
gradually adding charge to the circuit.
The PowerSpot Air light bulbs will shine
almost up to 100% when the voltmeter
marks over 8.5 volts. If it is below this fig-
ure, and the light bulbs were connected
when it read 12V or over, there are either
too many light bulbs connected or the
flame is too low or too high. Each instal-
lation must have the ideal flame, and we
must be careful that the flame does not
surpass the perimeter of the base.
