On my 560, I got a better burn from wood in the ash pan by suspending on expanded metal, that was resting on a fire brick broken in half. Getting the wood up out of the ash and where more air can get around it, helped a lot.
And I added wood about every 15 to 30 minutes to the ash bin. I...
After almost a year of Walmart + we're very happy with it . It took us a while to learn the ins and outs but now its second nature.
It is saving us money. I can't put a number on it but I'm sure its saving us more than the $100 per year cost, but probably not by much.
So why have it ...
I don't see those temps as hot and fast. HF is well over 300, actually more in the 350 and up range.
275 is the generally accepted temp for about everything.
With two briskets on the grate, I'd think there's more radiant heat on the 36" smoker.
Though, the reverse flow can get radiant heat from the cook chamber length baffle.
I happen to have watched this Aaron Franklin vid just the other day, where he talked about hot and fast. It should start at the 19:50 mark .

Convection can speed cooking times. For convection ovens in the kitchen, recipe cooking times have to be adjusted. Convection is a more efficient transfer of heat.
And we get convection in our smokers with air flow. Its very possible your 82" reverse flow...
I'll second the wet brine. I've been using Tuffy Stone's wet brine and its made a world of difference in not only how juicy the bird is but also flavor .
Its a bit of a pain as it has to be made a day or two before, but its excellent .
