Masterbuilt Electric Smoker - First Timer

[quicksmokinq]

So I just purchased the Masterbuilt 30" electric too...my third smoker, but first electric.  What I am curious about is how long does a load of chips last?  It almost sounds like you just add one load and when it's out it's out, no more are needed?  I want to do a brisket in there overnight, but want to know if like my charcoal rig if I am going to get up every few hours to add more chips??  Thanks in advance!

A load of chips only lasts for about 20 to 30 minutes. I use an amzn12 inch tube in mine so i dont have to keep adding chips. I can get anywhere from 6 to 8 hours from a full tube depending on draft which is good for a butt or brisket
