I was thinking too hard about the Hunsaker Vortex. I figured if the flow really spiraled it would need more places to exhaust in order to get the vortex effect. Not more exhaust volume, just more locations. I can open each of the 4 dampers up 25% to equal one damper fully open. In theory it should work, but I question the value. I crack each one open when using the vortex plate, but I have no way to tell if it does any good. I also open them up when doing sausage or jerky to allow more moisture to escape.What is with the lid vents, are there more than one on the 22 or is that a mod. If it's a mod what the thoughts on more top vent air flow?
