eControl vs Electrickit conversion systems for Aga cookers

Two different systems, eControl and Electrickit power our remanufactured Aga cookers and Aga cookers we convert in situ. We'll take the time to find the right system for you. The tables at the links below give very details comparison information.

eControl uses a bigger electric supply than Electrickit, so can heat its various components slightly quicker with larger elements. It doesn't use any more energy though. Imagine it takes 4 units of electricity to heat some metal to 200°C. eControl will deliver those units faster than Electrickit. Same amount of power and heat, slightly less time. What sort of difference are we talking? Its not huge!

• The left eControl hotplate take 15 minutes to maximum temperature using a 2kWh element. The same hotplate from Electrickit takes 19 minutes to maximum temperature using a 1.4kWh element. 
• eControl uses 3 elements with a combined power of 3kWh to bring the ovens up to 220 ℃ in 60minutes. Electrickit uses 3 elements with a combined power of 2.5kWh to bring the ovens to 220 ℃ in 65 minutes. 

In terms of control Electrickit gives you temperature control of the top roasting oven via a digital display (0-280℃). See picture below. The lower oven is approx 60°C cooler than that set for the top oven. A boost dial (1-8) means you can boost the lower oven to roasting temperatures when required.  

 eControl by contrast gives you target temperature control over all cast iron ovens with digital temperature displays. 

 

Visually the only difference between the two systems is that the hotplates are slightly larger on eControl vs Electrickit. They dispense with the expansion rings for a slightly more modern look made of engineered steel rather than cast iron.  

eControl has two optional upgrades.

• The Instaheat hotplate upgrade replaces one of the normal steel heat storage hotplates with a 2.5kw ceramic instant heat hob. Here is Blake & Bull founder Matthews review of Instaheat.
• The oven hot plate / pizza plate upgrade fits a perfectly flat engineer steel oven base to create an in oven hot plate or pizza stone. 

Electrickit has only an optional induction hob, with 1.6kWh or 3kWh power, that replaces the left hand hotplate. 

Only Blake & Bull offer an optional 5 year warranty, on both systems, directly. We'd like you to shop with us for decades, you are more important to us than a single conversion or installation. It's why every job must be perfect.

If you are finding this confusing then don't worry, you can't make a bad choice!
