DIY smoker remodel

[rhjbarney]

Just remodeled my smoker it used to be a hot food holding box but was only 110 VAC 1200 heating element which only got temp, up to 180 deg, converted it to 220 VAC and a 5400 watt heating element and installed the Fireboard thermometer which is WI-FI as the main controller of the smoker no more babysitting for me i can put something in the smoker and go literally anywhere as long as i have cell phone service and have full control of my smoker adj temp,up or down, turn it on and off and view up to 5 meat probes Fireboard is the best thing since canned beer.

Nice, did you make that case holding the Fireboard? I might do that for mine

Looks great, I'd put a fan in the top looks like its running a lot hotter at the top or a bigger outlet vent to even temps out top to bottom

Yes they sell one for about $55.but its just big enough for unit i got mine @ Walmart ozark trails dry box for $20. And big enough to store cables and charger drilled a hole on down side with a rubber grommet to run cables through.

It had a fan in bottom that circulated air up the diffuser in the back but gave up after the second fan seems to jam up and quits turning. I dont think the motor bearings like the smoke.
