Hey everyone,

I recently ordered an AMNPS because everyone was so happy with theirs and I'm tired of screwing with my Analog MES trying to get TBS. Anyway....Where do you Analog MES guys put the AMNPS at? I was thinking right on top of the wood chip tray but I'm not sure if that's too close to the element.

I have an analog MES30 from QVC and I put my AMNS on the bottom shelf above the original chip tray.  Works pretty well there but you loose a rack that would otherwise be reserved for meat!

Luke, morning....  The AMNPS works best in a cool environment with good airflow...  Some have chosen to go with the "mailbox" mod.... That seems to be the best of both worlds...  Below is a link describing what some folks have done...    Dave

I place mine all the way on the bottom of the cabinet. There is a space on the bottom left against the cabinet wall. ....this is technically actually under the chip tray.  Seems to work well there for me.
