Tore down the found toaster. KitchenWorks T39. Lots of parts I can harvest, like springs and cages, AC cord.
Oh. A little bit of electronics on board (that's probably what failed). Can get those parts too.
That board has resistors, bimetallic strips, a transistor, an electrolytic, and an IC! What?!
I have never seen nichrome in a flat ribbon. This might be useful in low-profile applications.
Testing time!
Tested the horizontal strips, which were on the outside. Around 3 ohms.
Tested the diagonal strips, the central heater. Around 6 ohms.
All photos with the motorola e6.
