Zander, I think you're all set. The kiln is not much worse heat-wise than a gas stove. At a kiln building workshop, I was told by the instructor to "think of an electric kiln as a big toaster." Made it easier to deal with mentally. I call mine "Toasty" in honor of that workshop.
Have fun with your new "toy" :>)
