Overfiring Stove

[loudog]

I'd just bolt or stick a thermocouple to the top of the insert, and feed the wire out thru the surround. Plug it into a thermocouple meter, and voiala! instant stove-top thermometer on an insert.

I actually rigged my cat probe thermometers the same way.

Smart. I'll see how the IR thermo works, and if it's inconsistent or seemingly inaccurate, I'll snag a TC. I have a multimeter that will accept a TC, so it'll cost near nothing...

loudog, try to shoot a reading under or through the top grille, as far back as possible.
