Sorry to hear that Bushrod, you must of got a lemon. I've had mine for almost a year and haven't had one problem, and couldn't be happier. Maybe they need to send out a whole new unit.
In my opinion i think the smoke tronix is a great smoker. I have a hand full of smokes under my belt now and am quite impressed. Like any smoker at this price point, they are going to have some pros and cons. I have owned 2 MES units over the years, and so far i like the smoke tronix better.
Great to hear you like your new smoker. The ribs look great! I've had mine for a little while now and am still loving it. I have noticed if you use a mix of fine and regular chips it does seem to work better. Last smoke I almost got 4hrs out of a tray of chips.

The Anova arrived yesterday. It was a long day at work so I was in a hurry to get the ribeyes cooked before it was to late, so I didn't take any photos. I did two 15oz ribeyes, seasoned with just s&p. I cooked them at 129 for 2 hours, then seared them in a cast iron skillet. Wow, these where...

So everything went great yesterday on my first long smoke with the Smoke Tronix. The butts took about 13.5hrs and the smoker never missed a beat. The finished product is really good! Only problem no Q-vue. It was getting late and I totally forgot to take some pics. I only had to fill the chip...
