But I've never been overly concerned with temperature swings, and those shown here don't really concern me much either.
So this is the 5.5 and you're able to get 5 full pans on... wow .... wonder if that's translates to 7 on the 7ft model ...
Temp swings when empty are always larger than remp swings with a pit full of food.

I think you both make good points. I just cant remember who wanted the tests done with a load in the unit. I guess it does not matter. I think a full aluminum pan might be a bit much, but maybe a 9 x 12 with water on center shelf and then temps on grates above it and below it?I will do tests as long as you all say what you want. Like I said, even as cheap a screw as I am, I can handle .13 cents/lb.Quote from: pmillen on April 01, 2018, 11:18:50 AMQuote from: slaga on April 01, 2018, 11:12:23 AMTemp swings when empty are always larger than remp swings with a pit full of food.

Set at 200°, 1st hour chimney at 1 finger setting. Add water, 2nd hour water pan full and chimney screwed down to 0 fingers. I simply do not understand back left.
