I recently bought an Auber temp controller, Model SYL-1615SYS-W for my WSM, with a 10 CFM blower. I was excited to use it this past weekend, until I realized I didn't have an accessible power supply. I maintain temp pretty well, but for overnight cooks and a couple upcoming amateur competitions this summer, I'd like to have this option. I'm not really sure what to look for. According to the specifications, the fan output is 12V DC, 1 amp, and the power consumption is 0.26A (do the amps matter?). I've been trying to research what to buy, and found a generator linked below. Would this work? Do any of you have other recommendations? I don't want to spend a fortune, but I will spend what I need to get something reliable. Any advice is appreciated.
If my math is right it would run for 8 hours on a double A battery, so you really shouldn't need too much. What you have there is definitely more than enough. Does your controller have a plug like you plug into the wall, or is it a barrel connector?
