Should I be soaking wood chips if I am using an electric smoker??

I have been reading up about the the smoker i have (the little chief) and many people are saying that the internal temp only reaches 165 to a 175 degrees. At this temperature does anyone know roughly how long it would take to cook a whole chicken about 3-4 pounds?

My name is Mike I have recieved a Little Chief electric smoker as a gift and am excited to learn all about smoking meats. I am new to smoking meats and look forward to learning many techniques along the way. My first smoke will be tomorrow consisting of 2 whole chicken and a pork loin. Any tips...
