How do i get wood chips to produce good smoke at 200-225? I have tough time getting them to be totally used up without turning up temp.
 
spread the chips out on a plate and nuke for a few minutes before you start using them,it works with pellets and I suspect it will work on chips too

Welcome to the forum!
Frankly it's going to be hard to get wood to burn or smoulder at those low temps.
I use a piece of 2x4 with a hole drilled in it to hold my pit probe and usually run 250 to 270.
It's just barely charred and still intact after 3 years....
