Speed controller is a homebrew PWM based around a 555 timer circuit with a mosfet final .
After using the syfphon set up last year this set up blows it out the water ,start up is instant,no waiting for the venturi effect to bring the oil into play .

Of course its early days going to have to see how the winter goes and see if its reliable .This year i got the wood burner all ready for back up .I really dont want a year like last ,in between heat sources that sure did suck.All my spare time was installing the new system and not cutting wood .....yep it wasn't a comfy winter last season .
