[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1006678, member: 15199"]The heater uses a pulse of electricity adjusted by the knob control. It seals my thin food bags in less than a second, about a second for the mylar flip seal. I could touch next to the seal right after and it is just warm. If I set it to the high, it will melt right through the mylar, so I have marked my uses on the dial :) It also does the non-PVC soft safety flips if you don't want to use the mylar. On Silver dollars, and ASE I guess, I seal near the top of the flip after squuzing the air out. Cents, and small coins are far away from the element. I filled one with black inkjet refill ink, sealed it and left it underwater for 3 days, and no color came out. Tried it with an air-tite, and it was leaking before I could turn my back. But as I said, it is visually ugly, almost like a scar, but if you sell on ebay, sealing a coin to send out, it very safe it won't be exchanged and returned. I only use for coins I plan to set aside for a while. Jim[/QUOTE]
