Paragraph Number

95

In an embodiment such as that illustrated in FIG. 9, the graphite 910 may be about 9 inches wide and 5 thousandths of an inch thick with a separating distance 818 for lengths 816 of about ¾ of an inch. Consequently, the resistance for the whole cover 900 may come to about 19 ohms. The cover 900 is designed to connect to a 120 volt circuit. With a drop in resistance of about 0.5 ohms as the graphite elements 904 heat up, the resulting current draw gradually moves from about 6.3 Amps (120 volts/19 ohms=6.3 Amps when first connected to the power source) to about 6.5 Amps (120 volts/18.5 ohms=6.5 Amps when maximum temperature is reached).
