Yep I've got 2 of the 4108B - luckily I've got 2 separate circuits easily accessible from the brewing area
Not having done a double batch with the immerison heaters - I'd reckon you'd need more than a single 2400w - how much more I couldn't say
A 3600w will need a circuit with 15 amps running in your home
I do remember reading some where that some one was using a 2400w and a 1800w for 44L double batches and that worked well - so I imagine that 2 x 2400w would also do the trick
I did taste the wort when pitching the yeast a couple of days later - and didn't notice any burnt /off flavours - just your normal "holy crap that's bitter! ... yet somehow sweet" taste
Total brewing time was just short of 4 hours (including a stuck-ish sparge - 0.75mm is way too small a gap) so I can't say there was an increase in brewing time over the nasa
If the provision is available to go electric and you are comfortable doing so - then it may be a viable option.
Hope that helps
Cheers
