OK, I was letting this go, but when I am misquoted, I'll have a short response.
The quote was:
"If that is all you can afford or want to spend..."
Want to spend being the key words in the quote.
That being said, looking back, I agree that some of my comments didn't come off the best and were a bit snarky, so I apologize again. I guess I am just passionate about the subject as are you about your MES's which is great. I'm just happy that there are so many people enjoying this hobby no matter what vessel they choose to smoke in. Based on my experience with two different models of MES smokers over the years, I still believe what I said, but should have probably kept it to myself or tried to write my comments better. So, again, please accept my apologies to anyone that was offended.
Back on subject again. Sorry for the detour.
