They’re designed to be uniform. They push heat evenly across the board. But glass is picky. It doesn&rsquo;t want &ldquo;even.&rdquo; It needs specific thermal gradients to keep from cracking or crystallizing before it&rsquo;s ready. That&rsquo;s why we don&rsquo;t just look at the size of the heating element. We look at the power density.</p>
