Had no issues with my 10 on my 18. Maybe some overshoots and undershoots in certain circumstances but I chalk that up to operator error getting used to the Stoker. I moved the 10 over to my new 22 and purchased a 5 for the 18 to replace the 10. I cook mostly between 275 and 350. The 5 has to...

I throw it all out. The tips, with lots of fat and cartilage, are not appreciated no matter how tender I get them. They're just too fatty and cartilagy (I made that word up).

Pics? I had that problem with my 18 and WCS sent me a whole new door. Fumbled with fixing it a few times but nothing worked well.

Very cool!!!! Great idea.

Not all routers allow address reservation. Mine didn't. My stoker tweeted with dynamic and static IPs. I had to go with static though since accessing my stoker from the internet works smoother if addressing is static. I opened a free account with dyndns to fix my routers ever changing IP...

I'd shoot an email to Kenny at Rock's. rock@rocksbarbque.com

Aaron,

Depends mostly on the fan (5 or 10cfm), the length of extension, the gauge wires in the extension and which power supply you're using. The 5cfm I understand is less problematic with extensions/splitters than the 10cfm blower. I tried running a 40' 18AWG 3 conductor wire extension using a 10cfm...

My Stoker tweets with static IP set. The key to my problem getting it to work was setting the default gateway in the Stoker as the router IP (192.168.1.1). Having your Stoker set to DHCP will cause problems accessing it when the IP address changes on the Stoker.

Here's the setup I've settled on to control my two WSMs and monitor my MAK pellet cooker. The Stoker controller sits inside the house in a corner right next to my spot on the couch. I have 3 control cables that run from the Stoker under the house to the backyard deck where my cookers are. A...

With a WSM the Stoker provides the 5V of power needed to run the fan. Will the Stoker provide the AC power needed to run the pellet pit fan/auger/igniter? Having a difficult time visualizing it.

Bill, I assume that since pellet cookers have controllers and some like the MAK have user programable controllers, all the mods to be made to the Stoker and the pellet pit would be to gain remote control over the pellet pit and not much else?

I agree with Brian. I follow Rocks vent suggestion of top vent 25% open, bottome vent 100% closed and have not had an issue.

Bottom vents 100% closed, top vent 75% closed which is Rocks suggestion in their video.

Mine has worked flawlessly. scsstoker, turned the Stoker off this morning so tweets have ended.
