    Question about heat element placement.

    Thanks again Bill. Unfortunately I have (6) 90’s in the run. If it doesn’t work I will look into pulling another wire. I’d did look at the breaker after reading your post and I am using one “leg” of a double pole breaker spot. Sorry if I’m not using the correct terminology.

    Question about heat element placement.

    The Blackstone and Firedisc on the new part of the deck. I could only paint half of the deck because of the weather. Now to move the monstrosity and finish it in place.

    Question about heat element placement.

    I was also planning to put the heating element in the center. Does it need to go there? It would be easier to go closer to the back wall.

    Question about heat element placement.

    Ohhhhhhhh. I was looking in the cooking profile where you set the temp, time , food temp , etc. I’ll check it out again. I also can’t seem to get the app on my phone. Went on my iPad like a breeze!!!

    Question about heat element placement.

    Thanks Edge. I have a time for each step when I smoke sausage. It will be nice to have it programmed and not use a stop watch. May have to retuned like you said, I’m used to dealing with the temp swings and hope not to have as many.

    Thanks kbarnes. It doesn’t show up on the app yet but I haven’t plugged the fan up. Hopefully it will show up when I do.

    Question about heat element placement.

    Thanks for the great info Bill. The brick is held in with a few screws so it can come out if need be. To be honest I’m tired of building around it. The wire is 12 and the breaker is 20 amp. I wish I’d known about the 2 different circuits. That would have been awesome and doable I think. I’ve...

    Question about heat element placement.

    Got a little done today. Didn’t like scabbing under the hinges but had to. Insulated the fire box too.

    Question about heat element placement.

    The plan is to drill a hole through a 2x2 and run the cord through it to hold it over the middle of the firebrick. I did plug in the element and it doesn’t get hot from the “plug” on the element to the stainless mounting clip. I will wrap the “ plug” and cord with the 2000 degree insulation...

    Question about heat element placement.

    Thanks Jim. I put the insulation in the roof today but it’s to cold to be out for a Texan. I hope to do a test on the heating element soon.

    Question about heat element placement.

    Had to add on to the deck and add electricity for the Auber and the Treager. Hope to get back to it after this cold front passes.

    Question about heat element placement.

    Went ahead and downloaded the AuberSmart app. I had to rename my 5 ghz signal on my router as the PID only uses 2.4.

    Question about heat element placement.

    Had to square off the angles on the firebrick. It was to much for my redneck math skills. More room for insulation.
