Hi All,
I recently got an Auber temp controller (6.5 CFM) for use with an 18" WSM. I tried it out on an overnight cook and it never was able to pull the temp of the cooker up to the set point of 225. The fan was running constantly throughout the night, so it was definitely struggling to make it, but had a hard time breaking the 220 mark. See below for a graph of my temp readings. The red line is where I pulled the Auber off as it was starting to rain.
I have a couple of questions:
Thanks,
Jeff

I have a couple of questions:
- Has anyone had trouble getting their cooker up to temp with an Auber?
- Anyone using one of these in an 18" WSM? If so, what fan size? I'm wondering if I just need a larger fan?
- Has anyone used one of these in the rain? I have a waterproof box I can keep the electronics in, but wondering if leaving the fan connected in the ran will be the death of it.
Thanks,
Jeff
