Heatwave numbers

We are in New Jersey.
Electric is priced just silly.
We have a small oven, still electric. Prefer our larger gas unit, but no room for this one to go gas and big.
Have had little luck getting throughput figures for this small mr gas unit. Can't even get two that are close.
Anyone have a realistic real life experience?
Plastisol  vast majority of time.
Serving just one auto or manual.

my understanding is that it's rated at 500 or so per hour, but I know Sam here pushes it way past that (600 or maybe even 700?).

I think M&R is being conservative to stay out of trouble. After all, different parts of the country will operate under different circumstances (humidity and temp) which affect the output speed.

We rate the dryer at 450 pieces per hour. Like everything MR does we rate very conservative.

we have the heatwave and we run 720/hr  consistently through it daily.  that is for a normal print size.  you start doing full backs or full front (14 Inch prints or bigger ) it does slow it down due to belt size. 

it is a great dryer and we are super happy with it.
