The Hot Shot combines the space and performance of a large kiln with the convenience of 120V operation. The Hot Shot is very capable and offers the full range of firing operations. Slump it, paint it, fuse it, anneal it. A wonderful kiln for the beginner.

The Hot Shot is equipped with our Set-Pro, 3 button, 4 program control. This control allows you to set up to 8 changes in temperature, speed and hold times per firing program. "On-the-Fly" features include adding time, adding temperature and skipping ahead. Very cool stuff.

The Set-Pro is not limited by pre-set programs. Not only does this give you complete control, it also allows you to fire glass from all glass manufacturers. As you move from beginner to a more experienced level this added flexibility is worth its weight in gold.

For our International Customers, the Hot Shot
is available in a 220/240V design.

Control Options

The Hot Shot is available with the built-in Set-Pro, 3 button control.
 

Power Interrupt Option:

The Hot Shot is available with the Power Interrupt Option (a.k.a. lid switch). The Power Interrupt Option automatically removes power from all heating elements as the lid is opened and reapplies power as the lid is closed. Those wishing to enter the kiln during firing should strongly consider requesting this option as an added measure of safety.
 

Firing Chamber Dimensions:

14.5" diameter x 6.5" deep - 0.70 cubic feet, (37cm long x 16.5cm deep - 20 litres).
 

Voltage and Phase Configurations:

North American Model: 120V, 12A, 1440W, NEMA 5-15R

Global Model: 230V, 12.5A, 2.88Kw (Viewing Window not available with 230V model)
 

Suitability:

The Hot Shot is quite capable of all glass related firing up to 1650°F (900°C), such as painting, fusing, slumping, annealing, etc..

It should also be noted at this point, that the Hot Shot is designed to fire a single layer or shelf. The nature of the Hot Shot is to provide heat from the lid elements directly to the shelf containing the glass. Attempting to fire glass below the top shelf is likely to lead to frustration and disappointment. So.....one shelf only. 

The Hot Shot is not really designed to fire Ceramic, Porcelain, Pottery, China or other "ceramic" related materials.
 

Recommended Kiln Furniture (Shelving & Posts):

We recommend the following shelf: 12" (30.5cm) Round Shelf - Part # 7407

You'll also need a quantity of posts to support the shelf. What length? We suggest either 1" or 2" posts. How many? Four posts works well. These will work: 2"  (5cm) Tri Post - Part # 7002, 3"  (7.6cm) Tri Post - Part #7003

Agency Listings and Markings:

U/L & CU/L listing available on this model. Model features and options may affect listing.
CU/L is a Canadian Listing which is accepted by authorities in all Provinces.

Kiln Vent:

Evenheat offers the Orton Downdraft Vent System as an option. Is venting necessary in glass work? Depends! Vents are nice if you're firing paints, decals or other items that may need oxygen to develop color properly. Vents also help to remove the fumes which may be generated when firing these types of items. Typical fusing and slumping really don't require a vent.
