    I have the MasterForge rebranded MES Gen 2. So far it works great. I have not used it in the frozen weather yet though.

    Question on tube size and casings

    So, I am assuming that the 17mm collegen casings do not just slide on the 3/8 horn like the 21mm do? Has anyone loaded their 3/8 horn with 17mm that can explain??Thanks,Jeff.

    Mes 30 wire repair...with R-view!!

    As an electrician, I doubt that the duct tape will last long on heating elements, and the solder questionable. I would suggest some type of pressure connector like a lug or even a crimp on.

    Bought my first smoker today.

    Bought my first smoker today.

    The only reference to this smoker I can find is one that is 650W? The one I just purchased has 800W. Does anyone here have experience with this one? It appears to be new on the market as there are no reviews that I can find, and only one Amazon review there.Perhaps I'll have to write one up?Jeff.
