Feeling the Heat
I just ordered these item numbers so I can hopefully get better burns out of my stove this year. I think that my CAT stalls fairly often and that is causing issues. Also this will help the wife as she just gets the STT up to around 500 and closes the damper and walks away. Multiple times, just yesterday I'd come in the room and she would be sitting there with a black firebox and be like "Oh I added some wood and let it get going then closed the damper". We already have the bimetal one that comes with the CAT, but she cant be bothered to look behind the stove and check it a few minutes after she closes the damper.For what its worth, definitely worth the digital. At the advise of many here I went with the Auber AT100. After a little programming it works great. Below are the two item #'s I bought directly from Auber Instruments website:
Digital Thermometer - Item# AT100
K type high temperature thermocouple Probe Length Option: 6 (150 mm) Connector Option: spade connect
Item#: WRNK-191
First time closing the damper on the new stove yesterday, cat thermometer held steady around 1000-1200 degrees I actually have a nice video clip of the re-burn in action attached
