    Modded it already..... Added the 2 racks from the electric one that failed to my new one and now I got 4 racks about 4.5" apart and easily removable when not needed. Way cool now.

    Help! Portable (enough) Smoker for Tailgating and Home Use

    Power requirements say get a Propane unit unless you carry a generator. 12V and 20A is only 240 Watts from a car Power Point (Cigar Lighter) and well isulated smokers still are 600-800 watts and mine was an astounding 1800.
