The same parameters that were used in part 1 were maintained in part 2.
Note the temperature was set to 275*
With the probe placed on the 3rd shelf and located in the right rear corner, here is the results. Note: The aluminum drip tray remained in place.
The cabinet temperature fell to 184*. When the temperature came back up it rose to 371*
The temperature stabilized at 311* to 347*. Sorry forgot to get picture.
Then, the tray was remover and the temperature swing was established.
The swing without the tray was 285* to 359*
Note the MES digital readout was 266* to 284*
The temperature fell to 120* when I opened the door to move the probe to the front left position on the 3rd shelf.
The temperature swing stabilized at 266* to 299*
The final temperature test was with the probe in the center of the 2nd shelf. The drip tray was centered on the 3rd shelf, figuring I would have the AMNPS centered on the bottom (4th) shelf most of the time.
With the door open, the temperature fell to 246*.
The temperature stabilized at 269* to 300*
Of course each smoker may be a little different but this is mine.
I hope this information is helpful.
