AIM Test Kilns
 A “Test Kiln” is a small  electric kiln that is usually wired to run off 15-amps or less of standard 110-volt household current. Test Kilns provide a convenient choice for ceramists whose work is very small (dolls, jewelry, miniatures, etc.) and whose production level is light, or who cannot install the 240-volt power line required for larger kilns. Test kilns are also an indispensable tool for high production studio potters.
