Lol. You guys are off track. But you did name some of the components. Kind of.

So this waterbox is about 30 minutes from being cut in half. It is just too big in every possible way. The stinger doesn't line up (waterbox inlet is too high), this caused the back of the box to flare out, pushing the exit side right infront of the intake. None of this is to say that there is anything wrong with the products, it's just not fitting in this hull.

Oh poop, i missed that part...

Well, im no electrician i dont know the names of anything. Theres a bigass voltage regulator, a voltage gauge, voltage dial, a digital read out, a heat sync, a circut breaker, toggle switch. A capacitor,

Before you cut it, I would contact whoever you bought it from! I think you would have the best luck by contacting TPE. My buddy put this pipe in his TPE Powered ROK-R, and he needed a custom sized waterbox. Its possible you could just send your current box back, and have a custom sized box sent to you.

My last guess tonight comes from a facebook friend.

A kiln or furnace. Maybe for ceramics or power coating oven.
Variable AC power transformer, capacitor, thermostat, digital readout, on/off switch,

So I'll help you guys out. These are the components you have named correctly:

Variable AC power Transformers (variac, powerslides, etc have a few brand names)
Capacitor
On/off switch
Another on/off switch
Heatsink
Digital voltage panel meter
Analog amp panel meter

You missing the small square thing, the large green thing (you are close, it is a type of resistor), and the small black piece. Well I've tell you the black piece on the left is a fuse block. It's hard to see in the picture. No one has actually guessed exactly what it is that I am building, but two were very close. Just weren't specific enough.

that has to be it because he said anodizing was close so powder coating is super similar, i think you win


and that thing dang near has to be a capacitor51968eb0ce395f352c000000.jpg

I'm not actually going to cut it. Just in a cursing, wrench throwing mood right now. I am pretty sure I can make it work. I bought it from Tim direct. Just to be clear, I don't blame the product at all. It is well made. The pipe is just gorgeous in person (I have a thing for stainless steel anything though, so it might just be me). The issue here is my top deck doesn't allow the pipe to sit up high enough to get the stinger to the same height as the waterbox. This throws everything off. I ran into the same issues with the pfp, but the waterbox being smaller and shorter made it a little easier to line it all up.

yea man, custom parts have custom problems! (quote cred: @Moto360) It still might be worth contacting TPE about a custom sized box. Might alleviate some headaches.
