Could make the foundation for a HERMS setup. Heater might not be strong enough.....

Power: 1650W, 220-240V . Would do the job half filled but wouldn't be expecting any fast temp ramps.

I bought one of those with a smaller wattage (950w) & it was too slow. I removed the electrics from it & left the tap. I drilled a hole in the bottom & fitted a 2.8kw element & it heats the water for herms in 15minutes or so & gives me great control on the herms.
