I don't use my water pan with water. I put a big brick in it that will hold alot of heat. And cover the pan with foil on top to keep the pan clean.
Water uses more charcoal to heat and keeps your top side temperatures lower.

With no water in the pan your temps should go up. 210 would be a bit low. The water does that .

Good.!. yeah, water only can get to 212 so most of the heat will be off the pan about that temp. The heat around the edges Will be higher and as the water evaporates and is less water in the pan,the temps go up.
