If you are considering a Stoker or Guru, I have found a very effective and relatively inexpensive alternative here. Temp Controller

I'm looking to outfit my mini with my home made temp controller and had a couple questions on how you rigged your up. You pulled out the bottom damper and cut out the middle and put 1 1/2" pipe flanges on each side? Do you have the bottom part of the T fitting capped so it can't pull a draft naturally? Do you think it needs that large of a pipe? I was considering going smaller.
Thanks! I was thinking of mounting mine to the top of the charcoal bowl similiar to where the vents on the gold would be but I figured there might be stability problems, your design would eliminate that!
