Huh neat, know what the plastic is? Is it expensive high temp shit or do they do something clever to stop it cooking where it couples to the hot parts?

    The plastic shell is attached directly to the metal interior at a few points so I guess it must be some kind of high heat stuff there at least. The main solution however is they put an air-gap between the plastic shell and the metal interior, utilizing a couple of inlets on the bottom for "convection draft cooling".

    It has melted a little on the edge above the slots tho.
